This week for my blog I am going to the talking about a short story we read. We read a short story call lamb to the slaughter. This story is a bout a woman mary who was waiting for her husband to come home. When he gets home she asks him repeatedly if he was dinner he keeps saying no and she begins to get angry. She goes and grabs a frozen leg of lamb and hits him in the back of the head and he falls to the ground. At the time she never really let it sink in that she killed and him so she went to the grocery store to go get him vegetables from the grocery store for dinner. She came home and saw him dead and ran to him and started crying realizing that now of finally sunk in that she killed him. She calls the police and tells him that when she got home the grocery store that he was dead. The cops came and asked her questions. The cops never suspected that Mary killed him because her husband was a police officer and she knew all of them. She asked them if they were hungry and they did not want to impose and they finally cracked and they ate. Throughtout this whole time the lamb was in the oven. She pulled it out and they ate it. She remained in the living room and they ate in kitchen and they we talking about where the murder weapon could be and they said jokingly that it could be under their noses. Little did they know that they were eating the murder weapon. When they said that Mary began to laugh in the living room. As you can see the story was very interesting. http://www.classicshorts.com/stories/lamb.html
