Still laughing at Rob's comment. Caryl, I've never eaten possum, but know many folks who have. Sounds like you have a great recipe for it! Congratulations on your win in Sara's contest. Love, Carolyn

Oh I love it. I could have a big stew if I boiled the animals that are trying to take over here. I have been feeding a stray kitty who won't come in to eat. If I don't watch and pick it up soon enough I have had possums, raccoons and just a few minutes ago a baby skunk feasting on his left overs. Thank you for your comments on my "Nathan" poem. He was a local boy. I sent a card with the poem to his folks and it was read at his military funeral. So sad. Love, Joyce

Never had possum stew and I really don't want to. I'll eat just about anything if it's not road kill. That is what popped in my head for a country boil, alot of country folks out here probably have had it. I've heard it is quite greasy. With all of the animals your are feeding, I think I'd say indoors. God Bless you Joyce~ Caryl
