It's the day after Christmas and all through the house all the creatures are still living off leftovers from the days before. The stockings are empty, but the tree is still lit. There isn't a ton of leftovers, but there are enough that we seem to keep grazing on the food and sweets that are still left. (Cookies and candy and sweets, oh my.) Lucy, my rabbit, seemed to appreciate the fresh carrots that were left.
In honor of the day, I am sharing one of my favorite kids books, "Herb, The Vegetarian Dragon." I ordered the book quite a while ago from Barefoot Books after reading some stuff online about it. Love the pictures, love the peaceful message, and love the idea. It has message of tolerance and learning to live together, both meat-eaters and vegetarians alike, that I really liked.
Hope the holidays were awesome for everyone and the New Year is looking grand.
In the Words of William Ralph Inge; "Deliberate cruelty to our defenceless and beautiful little cousins is surely one of the meanest and most detestable vices of which a human being can be guilty."
In the Words of Isaac Bashevis Singer: "There will be no justice as long as man will stand with a knife or with a gun and destroy those who are weaker than he is."
