I will tell you a funny jerky story. About 10 years ago my daughter was in first grade. I worked third shift ( 11 pm- 7 am) at the time. As you know making jerky is a time consuming job. Anyhow, I had spent about 3 days making a big batch. When it was done I had it all in one of the big gallon sized freezer bags. I took some to work one night and of course ate it all really quick and couldn't waitto get home and eat some more. I had an early dentists appt that morning so I went straight there and din't come home before my wife and daughter left for work/school.
Well I got home and couldn't find the jerkey anywhere. I thought my wife was playing a joke. So I called her and she said that she saw it in the fridge that morning but honestly didn't do anything with it. So I went to bed finally. When my daughter got off the bus and came in I said " Honey, do you know where the deer jerkey is?" She said "Uh Huh!" I said "Where is it?" She said " We ate it!! I said "Who did?" She said " My class and my teacher.Daddy you make the best jerkey in the whole world and I wanted them to taste it" Man I laughed but really wanted to cry!! I told her it was Ok, but we talked abouthow jerkey is like Gold and that we dodn't give it all away. She is a sophmorenow and we still laugh about that.
