Loose skin and chubby thighs

Do any other mothers out there have a hard time preparing a roast chicken?



The chubby round thing that doesn't quite fill out the skin, the bones that can still sort of be felt through the soft pudge. Even the size. A little bit too similar to a brand new baby.

Kind of makes me want to be a vegetarian.

i don't have a baby - but i do have an adorable english bulldog - who just happens to share a body type with pigs (and sounds like one too). thus all it takes is a quick drive past the farms nearby and i almost tear up if i even say the word "bacon." ha. so yes, i get it.

When Charlie was very little, he used to make a kind of pig-snorting noise while nursing. I couldn't eat pork for months, and the sight of the words "suckling pig" on a menu brought me to tears.
