little bunny, big money
My plan to boil a bunny on Christmas (okay, okay, to braise a rabbit for Christmas dinner) has been thwarted. There is apparently only one shop in town that sells rabbit, and it charges $11 a pound. That's about $30 or even more for a single rabbit. I couldn't afford that even if I was willing to pay as much for a damn rabbit as I would for a decent piece of beef.
So now I need to rethink Christmas dinner. I still want something simple, easy to cook, and not too expensive, but also special. Anybody got any ideas? I'm still very much leaning towards a stew or soup, because even though, say, a roast is simple, it requires lots of other dishes to go with it, whereas a hearty soup or stew is a meal in itself.
