(Before It's News)

My niece, Claudia (right) and her friend, Lacey (left).

It isn’t just “What’s for dinner” any more, guys. And it isn’t just you that stalked it, shot it, skinned it, quartered it, cut it up and freezer-wrapped it, either. But we’ll let you cook it! You might want to consider a few things before you take on a kick-ass Texas gal.

Um…dude. The days of the apron-clad domestic goddess are gone bye-bye, honey. Not that we can’t do all that stuff, y’understand. There’s just more to life than watching soaps and scarfing down bon-bons and talking on the phone all day. Girls like action, too, babycakes! And not just after the lights are out.

This gal can get dirty, change a tire on the way to the fishing hole, bait her own hooks, and catch more fish than you. She can chop wood, make a fire, build a shelter out tree limbs and leaves, stalk a feral hog and shoot true with both gun and bow.

Now then. If all that doesn’t worry you, then you’re good to go. Just keep in mind that when you two have that inevitable disagreement, she’s not gonna roll over and beg like a trained pup. Best keep your distance, boys. Hell hath no fury like a Texas chick with her dander up. It’s a beautiful thing. It truly is.
