Who Wants Some of That Squirrel Stew?
Granny on the old TV show , "The Beverly Hillbillies" often remarked to Jed that he ought to go out and get a passel of squirrels so she make some squirrel stew. Although I'm not sure how many are in a passel, I'm guessing it's a lot because there's not a lot meat per square inch on a squirrel.
I've probably given a lot more thought to this than I should have, but bear with me a minute. I came home for lunch today, because I only have an early evening appointment. The plan was to do a little paperwork, prepare for this evening's appointment, and maybe take a power nap.
But, I noticed a couple of squirrels playing in a live oak tree. So I tried to do my best Kathy Strieb {an awesome Stager and nature photographer in Palm Beach County FL} photojournalist impression to get a shot like she does worthy on at least an honorable mention in the National Geographic Magazine.
Well I closed the car door very quietly and readied the camera. Then I slowly approached Rocky, the squirrel, from what I think may have been his blind side. Slowly, slowly, I got closer, then crouched down to a kneeling position and just watched him for a bit. I wondered how people shoot such small animals with the crude guns they had back in the day. If you had a big family you had to shoot a passel of squirrels and other animals to have much of a meal.
I just wanted a picture of Rocky because I'm probably a bit to citified to enjoy a meal of squirrel stew. I did check and there are several recipes for the dish of squirrel stew on websites for your enjoyment. In fact there are even some You Tube-how to videos for the dish.
So if you want some Squirrel Stew and you don't have a family recipe handed down from your Granny, just Google-Squirrel Stew. But if you want some help with your real estate needs here in South Texas, you can Google that too.
