T13: Thirteen Chunks of Meat

My favorite T13 post from last week is Argh! I can’t find my links. I wanted to feature the soldier who listed reason to be sad about returning home and reasons to be glad in two different weeks. Anyone seen that one?

Anyone remember the list my kids came up with a couple of weeks ago? I’m talking about the list of lists that I could use for my Thursday Thirteen posts. Some of you challenged me to come up with Thirteen Chunks of Meat. I naively thought, “sure. It’ll be easy.” Not! Turns out we don’t have thirteen kinds of meat in the house. I found myself grasping for straws.

Anyway, here’s my list:

1. Hamburger. This is actually special, irreplaceable hamburger. Seriously. I bought it from a former boss who no longer raises beef. There are only two packages of it left and when it’s gone, there won’t be any more.

2. This is grocery store hamburger that got put in a canning jar. It isn’t canned, it’s just here. Don’t ask.

3. Meatballs in spaghetti sauce. Don’t believe me? Tough. I’m eating them right now.

4. Corned Beef from St. Paddy’s Day.

5. Thick sliced ham.

6. Thin sliced ham. It’s from the same ham, but I told you I was desperate, right?

7. It’s over there in the bottom left corner – bratwurst. You can take the girl out of Wisconsin but Wisconsin will follow in delivery trucks. Now where did I put the beer?

8. Fish sticks – the thin kind. I don’t actually eat these.

9. I eat the catfish. As you can see, I’m running out. Gotta go get more.

10. Shrimp. That’s a chunk of meat, right?

11. Chicken

12. Egg. Hey, it counts.

13. Ok, this is where I really got desperate. If there’d been any cheese left I could have gone with it, but no. Instead, I used tofu. This is some I’m turning into Sesame Tofu. Yeah, I’m desperate.

So how many chunks of meat do you have in the house?
