I was saying to my husband that I wanted to post a thread for Easter, but didn't know what to post. He said, "A rabbit recipe!" My husband's father raised rabbits, and the family grew up eating them.
I said that I didn't think that would be exactly appropriate to the season; and Husband said, "It'll be funny!"
So, here's a compromise: a pretty Bunny Cake - I think Liz has posted this or something very like it before - and from Epicurious, 'Rabbit Cacciatore' from Ischia in Italy. (If you're like me and averse to eating actual Bunny, Chicken Cacciatore is wonderful):

Great egg salad recipe....thanks.
Thanks, Liz!
GMTA...That’s 99% of my recipe, except in stead of the teaspn of vinegar I use a tablespoon or so of minced half sour dill pickels...
Pickels add so much flavour to a dish.
I love navy bean soup, too. I think this one will be used for my New Orleans Mama’s red beans and rice.
Do post the recipe when you have time.
And NO sweet stuff aside what the mayo may give!
(Drives me crazy when people make deviled eggs with sweet pickle. It may be just me, but unless they’re in a sweet souffle or part of some other decidedly sweet dish, eggs should be savory...)
Beautiful, sharp-looking dog; it has what they refer to in horses as a “good eye”; and long-lived. I wasn’t acquainted with them:

These are my 2—Rufus the Red and Ficka.
So much for using Photobucket!
The Monte Cristo.
Just sandwich baked ham and your fave cheese between good white bread.
Then dip the sandwich in a French toast-like egg/cream mixture. Saute golden in butter.
Traditionally served showered w/ powdered sugar and a ramekin of jam thinned out with some h/cream
I hope JT's husband found a giant Resse's in his Easter basket for that perfect ratio of chocolate and p/butter.
LOL! He’s being very low-carb wise this year, and didn’t even get any Peeps, which he also loves. I tried to talk him into them, but he’s a lot more virtuous than I am.
WOW-—watta guy.
Woman Having Worst Day Ever Swallows Spoon While Trying to Dislodge Fish Bone from Throat
Vice.com ^ | 4/22/2019 | Jessica Castrodale
FR Posted by simpson96
If you’re convinced that you have swallowed a bone (snip) you can try to dislodge it by downing a tablespoon of olive oil, by eating a bite of a peanut butter sandwich, or by taking a couple of big gulps of soda. What you definitely shouldn’t do is stick a large spoon down your throat, because there’s apparently a chance that you’ll swallow that, too.
According to UK’s The Daily Mail, a 25-year-old Chinese woman identified only as Lili thought that she could feel a fish bone somewhere in her throat, and decided to try to knock it loose with a 5-inch long metal spoon. Because Lili’s afternoon sucked, she accidentally swallowed the spoon, and spent the next four days convincing herself that it would “too much trouble” to go to the hospital, mostly because it happened at the beginning of the annual Qingming Festival.
When she finally went to the Shenzhen Nanshan Hospital, she was X-rayed and had an endoscopy, and eventually she underwent a ten-minute de-spooning procedure. “As the spoon was in a somewhat horizontal position, we carefully adjusted it before pulling it out vertically,” Dr. Sun Tingji said. Other than some swelling in her small intestine, Lili didn’t have any lingering complications, and she was discharged shortly afterward.

Agreed! :)
And I think I had a bad day today.
(On the other hand, some cultures seem to have a more casual approach to emergencies. Lili seems to have been ‘trusting the Universe’...)
Anyway, I thought the tips for treating a fish bone stuck in your throat were good for food threaders to have handy:
downing a tablespoon of olive oil, eating a bite of peanut butter sandwich, or taking a couple of big gulps of soda.
