Scenes from the Kitchen Butcher Shop

We are officially done deer hunting for the year! K filled his muzzle-loader tag west of Mandan. A muzzle loaded gun is basically an old-fashioned gun, where you manually pack in the gunpowder and bullet like they did in the old days. At least that's how I understand it, I'm still a rookie to all of this. One bullet, one shot, so you better make it a good one.


So when K comes home with a deer, the kitchen turns into a butcher shop and I do my best to be a good sport about the blood splatters on my shirt while helping grind meat. I still haven't seen Sweeney Todd, but chopping up massive quantities of meat will turn anyone into dark comedy aficionado for the evening.

So in that spirit, allow me to post a few pictures to commemorate the end of deer hunting and butchering season for this year. Light stomachs beware:
