HOLIDAY EATING

If you have put off planning your holiday dinner, it is still not too late!  Thank my sister who included the following recipe in her holiday newsletter:

                                                      Delicacy of Diamondback

1 Western diamondback rattlesnake
1 cup of flour
1/2 cup cracker meal
Salt and pepper to taste
1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder

Find and kill a Western rattlesnake.  (Eastern should do just as well.)  Cut into edible potions.  Combine other ingredients for coating mixture -- more may be required, depending on the length of the snake.  Coat the pieces, and fry in deep fat until golden brown.

Me again:  You're own your own for a recipe for stuffing.  Have a great holiday!
