Lamb is weird in that way, right? It's easy to remember that veal is a baby cow but somehow lamb mentally feels like "the normal meat from a sheep" because most of us never have mutton.

I thought it seemed appropriate since I'm approaching the book with a kind of stubborn prejudice against it--lamb to the slaughter, as it were.

Sitting here knitting with a wool blend, but consoling myself that the sheep that lost this fleece has since grown it back.
