Just saw a wasqually wabbit this morning. Looked yummy, but Chucky
(aka: Charles Elwood Fromage the 1st; Chuck E. Cheese) paid him no
attention (kat). My mother raised rabbits for years. They are tasty if
you braise them in white wine, tarragon & then finish them w/ some sour
cream & light-as-air-dumplings. That may be a project tomorrow, along
with the strawberry-rhubarb pie... man, am I hungry, damb cholesterol
test, can't eat anything...
