Dinner is Served

Rabbit Meat Pulled and simmered in crockpot juicesUnfried Rabbit taco
Dinner is Served!

Yesterday, I posted my recipe for rabbit tacos. I cannot believe how awesome everything turned out!
After 8 hour on low in the crockpot; I strained the meat from the liquid. The kitchen smelled so good, hints of cinnamon & cumin. I pulled the meat from the bones, saving the liquid for later use. I put the meat into a frying pan, along with a little bit of liquid. This simmered on the stove while I did my chores (feed buns & dogs). I cranked the heat on the meat to get some crunchy's on one side.
My sister came over for dinner. When she heard what I was making, she couldn't pass it up. We fried shells, topped with fresh limes & cilantro. Dicky made up some re-fried beans. I bought Spanish Rice from my local taco joint around the block. I'm terrible at making Spanish rice.Anyone have a good recipe with chunky of tomatoes?

What a great midweek dinner.
I think this dinner won DH over on my meat raising hobby.

Bun Update!

Dark Ones Lighter One

These little cuties are only 2 of 4. It is so hard to get them to sit still long enough to get a shot that is not completely blurry. There is two that are black mostly & the other two are broken (black/white). Well, I don't think broken is the right term. I'm still really new at all of this!
The Herd is eating and drinking like crazy. I've been lucky the past week, temperatures have been above freezing! Which is good for water bottles. Next step is to move them into the Dog crate. Freckles is running out of room! Boy, they sure do grow fast! The Kits are very friendly. Everyone like to get head scratches and loves. I need more Hay this weekend!

This weather is driving me crazy. We should be covered in snow by now, not 40°F. I'm already dreaming of this year's garden. I've been requested to grow broccoli & jalapenos. We are going to have to bring in some fill dirt since the back of my yard is low. I already partially fenced off that part of the yard.
