Guest guest Posted April 10, 2008 Report Posted April 10, 2008 I say this little piggy had vegi soup It is funny when someone else does it to her, she just gives them 'the look'.. you know " Hey don't you know how it goes " ? I have not read the Hungry Caterpillar yet, but will be sure to use the soy reference. I think I should write the author and ask 'em to make a vegi version. LOL Quote
Guest guest Posted April 10, 2008 Report Posted April 10, 2008 I think that mentioning these things to fav. authors is great. They won't know if we don't speak up. Thanks for the veggie soup suggestion. I never even thought about it before, but it makes perfect sense. My daughter doesn't know the difference at this point (22 months) but I can see problems popping up, as I call veggie burgers hamburgers sometimes. Just habit, I guess... Burgers would be better for all.

Guest guest Posted April 10, 2008 Report Posted April 10, 2008 Hi Cassie, Well, we call veggie burgers " burgers " or we make the distinction between " boca burgers " (which I don't care for) and " veggie burgers " (all other burgers, unless they are a specific kind like " black bean burgers " ) -- but since we watch tv, our son has now heard words we don't use, and he now asks for " hamburgers " sometimes. Ugh. We've explained it to him, and he now uses hamburgers just when he's goofing around - and usually asks for the specific kind of burger he wants (boca, veggie, bean, etc.). So strange how semantics are such a big deal on some issues, but they are! I don't want the vision of poor cows as we eat our food. And DC, great idea to contact Eric Carle! That'd be cool to have a veggie version . . . it's a classic book that I love dearly, but it'd be grand to have a new version, too! :-) Have a great day, Lorraine On Behalf Of Cassie Dixon Thursday, April 10, 2008 6:48 AM Re: Re: This Little Piggy I think that mentioning these things to fav. authors is great.

Guest guest Posted April 11, 2008 Report Posted April 11, 2008 Too funny, as Lily will ONLY refer to toes as piggies! We think it adorable, but as a teacher, I wonder what her teacher will say in day care next year... Cassie " life's a garden, dig it!

Guest guest Posted April 12, 2008 Report Posted April 12, 2008 Do you have these piggies on a farm, or are they your house pets? We were just talking today about pigs, for some reason. I have wanted a pot-bellied pig for a pet, but our first child, Rebel the 90 lb Pit bull, would eat it He only has a few more lazy years left, so maybe we could get a small dog and a pig that would be great!

Guest guest Posted April 12, 2008 Report Posted April 12, 2008 We have two 10 yr old Hampshires. Keagan is about 800 lbs and Sebastian is about 1000 lb. I rescued them when they were piglets. We also have five pb pigs and lost one last year. I do a lot of rescue and placement, so when you're ready--let me know! There are lots of pigs needing homes!
