Directions

~~Talking about the depression,Grandma would say"Things were pretty scarces".

~~She never turned a stranger away from her door if they were hungry.

~~She mention on one occasion that she had fried a Jack Rabbit..they seemed to be pretty plentiful..that is.. if the coyote and bobcat population did'nt get down to far.

~~Anyway~~on this particular time,this guy came by looking for work,Grandad and Grandma did'nt have any for him,but seeing that he was as skinny as a rail,Grandma ask if he would like to sit down for supper.

~~He ate his share,rubbed his stomach,gave his thanks and stated"That was the best Fried Chicken he had,had in a long time."

~~She did'nt have the heart to tell him it was Jack Rabbit.

~~Jacket Rabbit.....I never aquired a taste for it myself..but...You ate what's in front of you,be grateful,and don't complain.

~~I try to remember that from time to time!

I think this should come out good and tender. The vinegar will make the meat soft and juicy. Now just need to catch me some rabbit!

You ate what's in front of you,be grateful,and don't complain,is the way my grandparents brought me up.We had rabbits, deer, turtle stew, you name it, we had it.I loved when my uncle killed a hog or a cow, so we could eat normal foods, lol.
