I was having McD CheeseBurger for dinner today. While I was happily chomping down my tasty beef, Mr. X said this, "Hmm ... actually, you shouldn't be taking beef now." "Oh, why?" I was puzzled. "Well, that's beef you are having right? And you are pregnant with a baby in what year now?" (He was referring to Chinese Animal Zodiac) "Ox year ..... " I replied. "Exactly ! You are pregnant with a baby 'ox' and you are eating beef? tsk tsk tsk" He chided with a disapproving look.
At that moment, I felt like climbing over the table to strangle him but at the same time, it was kind of amusing. And so I replied cleverly, "Oh .. so, Ivan was born in the year of Rooster but I was eating chickens then. So?"
Silly Mr. X. He laughed at his own silliness while I reminded him that this is the second time he brought up the same topic about me eating beef. Yummy ... love them beef !
