It's Groundhog time…
GROUNDHOG AND SWEET POTATOES
1 Groundhog
Cold water
Salt
Pepper
Sweet potatoes or white potatoes
Cornbread
The animal should be dressed as soon as possible and well soaked for several hours in cold, salty water. All excess fat may be trimmed off after the meat is cold. Parboil to remove and remaining fat and drain well. Place in a moderate oven and pack sweet potatoes or even white potatoes all around. Salt and pepper the meat and bake unti brown. Be sure the potatoes are thoroughly cooked. Serve with cornbread and use the heavy gravy that forms during baking.
Up early since the fountain people should be here around 9 am to deliver the two bottom pieces of my fountain. Yesterday I went out and got a pump for it and a green outdoor extension cord long enough to go to the nearest electrical outlet. I'm guessing that by noon I should be enjoying my new fountain.
In the seventies already, should be a nice warm day here.
