Vacation Dave


Dave had a week off and amongst other things decided to go duck hunting with some friends. He brought home about a dozen birds. Luckily, he breasted them out before I got home because I am not a fan of eating anything that I have seen with the fur, feathers, skin or scales still attached. He marinated them for a few days and then cooked up this dinner for us. The boys loved the meat and ate a breast each, which was shocking. Dave ate a couple breasts. I tried a bite, but unfortunately found myself running to the bathroom. I blame this reaction on my over active gag reflex during pregnancy and less on the duck. However, I don't think I'll be trying it again for a while.

How Fun! Jacob went Duck hunting with his brothers a couple of weeks ago too! He also ate the meat. I didn't even try it.

You are brave. I would have never touched it pregnant. It is disgusting any way you look at it. Even Roger quit duck hunting because he said it was a waste of a life...he enjoyed shooting the birds but didn't enjoy eating them enough to make it worth it. But at least your boys liked it!
