[...] is the craziest thing you’ve eaten? Well, I’ve already told you my “chicken” story. So I guess Rabbit, Frog or Snail? I’m not a super adventurous [...]

I'll happily eat most critters and have sampled some fairly exotic ones but once I know it's name it's safe from me.

One of my favorite childhood memories involves my Aunt Melba. My family lived in Columbus, Ohio, but every summer, we would pile into our station wagon and make the trek to Mt. Airy, N. C. where we would visit my paternal grandmother. She lived with her oldest daughter, Melba, and I loved visiting there. I can still smell the muskiness of the humidity of mid to late summer in North Carolina. I loved Aunt Melba's house–the main bathroom was so huge and had two sinks! But most of all, I loved my aunt's voice–soft with that beautiful Southern drawl. This Yankee sure did glory in those summer visits.

One of my favorite childhood memories was when I was 4, or so. It was Christmas time and my mom was bathing my sister & I. We had just gotten out of the tub and were wrapped in towels. There was a knock at the front door and, after answering it, my dad told us to come see. A group of people from our church were caroling in our neighborhood and it was our house’s turn. They started singing and I was so surprised I dropped my towel. The sight of me standing there in the front door stark naked made everyone laugh and they couldn’t finish the song. I love Christmas carols, but I keep my clothes on for them now.

OH MY GOODNESS… soo funny! I needed a good laugh today!! I love how your writing makes me feel as if I was there with you!

Growing-up I would say we were lower-middle class so eating out was a big deal! When I was 9 we were at a restaurant and I was dressed in my beautiful Easter dress! As I walked back to my seat after using the bathroom I strutted as if I was in a fashion show. Boy did I get amazing smiles and responses from people at the restaurant! Little did I know that my "beautiful dress" was tucked in my tights to let everyone see my backside! Good times!!! But man did I love that dress!

First off, I just found my way to your blog…love it.

I also love that you ate the Cadbury Bunny. It totally could’ve been worse, though. If you would’ve been in NC where I grew up it may have been opossum.

We raised the occasional calf for beef (and sometimes pigs, turkeys and chickens), but only once did we raise/butcher rabbits. Mom drew the line at cooking them, so it was pointless.

We love homegrown beef though. Our family saying at the dinner table was "pretty good for an ol' dead cow."

It was hard for "city folk" to take sometimes ..

Ouch! I would never have done that. I have never been much of a risk-taker. I'm always admired that in others.
