Steak pie and friends

From the MacMillan Stand Up To Cancer
Art Exhibition - I really wanted to buy it,
but as you can tell by the red dot, some
blighter beat me to it!

We'd only been into the veggie thing about a fortnight when friends asked my son and I up for dinner one Sunday evening

'It's steak pie with locally bred beef!' they announced.

For a moment, I was on the horns of a dilemma - should I remind my friends that Sonshine and I are veggie now and risk looking ungrateful, give them extra cooking worries and costs? Or just keep my mouth shut and eat the pie?

I kept my mouth shut and ate the damned pie.

Because, in the end, it was more important for me to appreciate and enjoy my friends' company than stick to my new ethics.

Was I wrong?
