I tried the worm pill today and she ate it!!!!!! Cool. She didn't do that a few years ago. Now I can eat the Leberwurst myself. LOL.
No, she can eat some, too. As a reward. And because she looks cute with her big eyes. And because she is the cat.

Um, why not? I love liver usually, most ways it's cooked.
I thought you didn't eat pig  :o

Awesome! And yes, she deserves it!

Yes, we don't eat pig, that's true, but it says that only some varieties contain pig.
هل أخذت الغاب مثلي منزلاً دون القصور
فتتبعت السواقي وتسلقت الصخور
هل تحممت بعطره وتنشفت بنور
وشربت الفجر خمراً من كؤوس من أثير

Ah ok. In Argentina, leberwurst is generally made of pig, but I suppose there are other varieties, perhaps in kosher stores or something. I just never searched for it (as I said, I am not that fond of it).

Maybe because it's pig. I like calf best, but only the smooth one. On bread with lots of pepper and some onions. And sometimes on Breze.

I agree, I like cow meat more than pig one, as a general rule. The notable exception are the chorizos (it's a kind of sausage, but apparently Argentinian chorizos are not exactly the same than Spanish ones). I really like our chorizos. Argentinians love to have them in a sandwich, sort of a hot dog, that we call choripan. (chori from chorizo, pan means bread). It's almost mandatory in all our bbq and it is also a common food in the stadiums when there are football (soccer) matches.

We can get Spanish chorizo here, you can cut it in cubes and use it for cooking or fried with eggs on a sandwich. Slices of leverworst is something many butchers in the Netherlands give to children of their customers.

Really? I never thought in leberwurst as particularly appealing for children.
And good about the chorizo, I am sure it is delicious.

Children like sausages. Mine does, all kinds of sausages.

"Normal" sausages are children favorites  :)- Leberwurst, I am not so sure. Perhaps I am mistaken.

Start young and children can learn to appreciate almost everything.

I agree, I just don't think that particular case is happening here. Argentinian children love the sort of sausages you can buy in a package, but not leberwurst.

We spent the afternoon colouring eggs for easter. That's always fun.  8)
I had 20 eggs. The kids painted some with water colours and I made a colour bath with vinegar. On these we put bunny stickers and such stuff.
After that I went to the farmer for 20 more eggs. LOL. I know what we will eat for the next days.

That sounds so much fun! I wish we had that tradition but we never had it. We do buy chocolate eggs, though  :)
Actually, even when we are full grown-ups, hubby and I will buy a chocolate egg this week.
