I wish I could've recorded yesterday's conversation with my g/f about full mask sporrans, and what I'd need to do in order to secure and properly venerate an animal which had met an untimely end. It was hilarious...there was a lot of shrieking. She's now been thoroughly convinced that the easiest way for me to get a fur or full mask sporran is not roadkill, and certainly not for me to take care of it at home. I thought she was either gonna faint, or go for the rolling pin when I said "foxen are small, I could probably fit two in the freezer, between the ice cream and the frozen vegetables!"

But the happy and planned result of the conversation about tanning, brine, and making a beautiful tribute to a poor animal whose life ended on a lonely road somewhere was that she is accepting of a full mask sporran, probably badger, as long as I don't do it at home , and as long as it isn't a furry woodland critter (I guess badgers don't count...thank goodness Disney never threw them in a cartoon).
