If only my mother had taken me to a slaughterhouse and I could have been given my God-given right to 'informed choice'...Slaughterhouse tours should be compulsory for schoolchildren I believe..."

Wednesdays image from Jessica :

"Italian and Turkish Filigree silver Butterfly Brooches

These silver butterflies are waiting to be housed, on someones jacket, bag, in a jewellery box; I stand in their way and tell people I am trying to sell them. Sometimes I make arrangments with them and take their photos. Mostly I am frustrated with them and they are wrapped up, to avoid tarnish and be spanky and shiny for when/if they do get sold."
