   And because they are Crustaceans…and provide the fishing industry with $1.8 Billion every year… and they are gnarly and clawy…and have hard exoskeletons which provide a impersonal and cold facade to their warm (and very tasty) souls within… Yum.

   I give up my feeble attempts at being all smart when I’m all barf. I’m on a diet: all veggies – and I’m missing my meat and fish. What lobsters and the fish do have in common is that I want them bad, and I want them now 😦

   grimescene: I’m going to sigh. I’m sighing now. See?

   aneela: It’s up here for everyone (or the 3 and a half people who read this blog) to see.

   Nino’s Mum: What kind of diet is this? Are you trying to cut out protein as well?

   CrazyDiamond: I know. They’ll never be deafened.

   wordjunkie: Shuffling sideways out of the picture.

   dipali: Because it’s fun!

    😦 I’m on a forced diet – I’ve been told to go vegan or die of colitis – eventually (had to add that last bit: I’m too melodramatic for my own good!)

    Nino’s Mum: Ouch! I’d be clutching my deathbed by now if any food at all was taken away from me. Ask the India Helps team. They were witness to a phirni-related panic attack this afternoon. 😉
