    OH YEAHHHH!!!! I ask him if he wants me to calculate the real cost of this "free" meat.

    He never has a problem with anything I buy.
    We tried to figure the cost of an elk he killed one year...about $3000 a pound. The pheasant cost $600 a pound.

    There are worse addictions than quilting, garage sale shopping, or shopping in general. Our husbands should consider themselves lucky to have wives with interests.

    My husband use to ask why I had to go get more fabric. Said I had a whole closet full. Answered because I don't have the right piece for this project. He got into woodworking and one day had to run to Home Depot for a piece of wood. My question, why you have a whole garage full. Got the same response as you & now he even takes me to quilt stores if we are traveling. PS Mine also hunts
