Thinking Outside The Plate


I’ve had a squirrel rambling around on my roof for a few weeks now. I was afraid he was trying to get into my attic, so I considered dispatching it with my BB gun. Then this virus hit and I thought I’d let him live until my wife and I ate up all our provisions. If things got bad I would shoot him and eat him. Suddenly, a hawk turns up in my backyard and builds a nest. Its been watching my tree rodent. Now I’m concerned that I’ll lose my squirrel dinner.

Someone told me that hawk tastes a lot like chicken. We may have to have a chicken dinner before we eat that squirrel.

Sometimes you have to think outside the plate.
