The Butcher's Apprentice: April 2016

http://thebutchersapprentice.blogspot.com/2016_04_01_archive.html

More than Meats the Eye. Tuesday, April 5, 2016. Does Your Beef Swing? 8220;Look who finally decided to show up.”. Today I get to gloat about getting to work before any of the boys. Grace had me come in at 8:30, when it was just her and Tommy here. Usually the boys are here around 6 or 7am; I wonder why today’s different. 160;           The shop looks unusually clean.  Not sanitized, just picked up—decluttered.  I guess they finall...Recycled, ugh) and things have been reorganized.  There are tw...This i...

The Butcher's Apprentice: January 2016

http://thebutchersapprentice.blogspot.com/2016_01_01_archive.html

More than Meats the Eye. Monday, January 18, 2016. The day after Christmas we aren’t opening until noon. 160;           I told Tommy I would meet him here at 8am to help with the post-Christmas Eve disaster cleanup. . 160;           Four whole hours without customers! There are empty lugs in the cooler that need the blood rinsed out of them. . Tons of trays are stacked in the old cold sink water. . The case is exactly the way I left it three nights ago, minus all the orders that were picked up; none of t...

The Butcher's Apprentice: July 2016

http://thebutchersapprentice.blogspot.com/2016_07_01_archive.html

More than Meats the Eye. Tuesday, July 26, 2016. 8220;How do you come back from that? 160;           How do. You come back from that? 160;           I’ve been asking myself that question for three weeks now, and I still don’t have an answer. 160;           Not really. 160;           How do you go from looking upon mountains to staring at spreadsheets all day? 160;           How?

The Butcher's Apprentice: August 2015

http://thebutchersapprentice.blogspot.com/2015_08_01_archive.html

More than Meats the Eye. Tuesday, August 4, 2015. Alone in the Wilderness with the Butcher's Apprentice. The mist is heavy on the water when we set out, even though it’s well after 9am by the time we hit the water. The spring-fed river is cold, and the day promises to be hot. The water is flowing high and fast as our canoes knife downstream between rock formations and vegetation. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Alone in the Wilderness with the Butchers Apprent.

The Butcher's Apprentice: October 2015

http://thebutchersapprentice.blogspot.com/2015_10_01_archive.html

More than Meats the Eye. Wednesday, October 7, 2015. A Recipe for Madness. This is why my life is a mess. This is the week I decide to start cooking. Life got pretty hectic for a while there.  My wife left me, can you believe that? 160; She quit to run her haunted house full time—the haunt that is supposed to have a character based on me, although they couldn’t find anyone to play her last year. 160; I quit them. . Then I had the brilliant idea to start taking secret dance lessons.  In July....This is th...

The Butcher's Apprentice: November 2015

http://thebutchersapprentice.blogspot.com/2015_11_01_archive.html

More than Meats the Eye. Wednesday, November 25, 2015. I’d hoped to have more to write about, but things haven’t exactly gone how I planned them this year. 160;           When I left Burt’s shop, I left with the intention of starting at another shop soon after.  A shop that processes whole animals, humanely raised, mere minutes from my home.  I gave them my “meat resume” months before they opened. 160;           And they never called. 160;           At Vi...160;       &...160;    &#16...160;  &...160;&#1...

The Butcher's Apprentice: August 2016

http://thebutchersapprentice.blogspot.com/2016_08_01_archive.html

More than Meats the Eye. Friday, August 26, 2016. I can still feel the tears on my eyelashes. 160;           I really hope it’s not surgery. 160;           Not again. 160;          . 160;           I found a second grey hair last week. 160;           When my first alarm goes off in the morning, I hit the snooze button.  Frank rolls over and wraps his arms around me so that we can cuddle for ten minutes until my second alarm goes off. 160; Then you’re driving tonight.”.

The Butcher's Apprentice: Flayed

http://thebutchersapprentice.blogspot.com/2016/05/flayed.html

More than Meats the Eye. Thursday, May 12, 2016. 8220;Looks like you’re getting a bath tonight, baby,” I say aloud, my voice oddly muffled inside my helmet. The sky to the right of me—south—is a pale blue smattered with white clouds. The sky at my left is ominous with black storm clouds. At a stop light, I glance down at the middle finger of my right hand. It is smeared with blood, but the blood is dry. Oh good, at least it stopped bleeding. I played like shit, and one of my knees took a beating. JohnJac...
