    I'll "go on that road", as I love empanadas. (Fyi, there is a Mexican bakery, that belongs to a family from Acapulco, down in Southside that makes over 20 kinds of them twice per day & ALL of the different kinds are GOOD.) The empanadas made from dried apricots are especially GREAT. yours, satx

    Brewing Vinegar

    Imvho, plain white/cider/wine vinegar is too cheap to bother making, though high quality & flavored vinegars are quite a different thing. yours, satx

    I heard this afternoon that a TMN was recently scratched, while trying to "chip" a 200 gram native cotton rat. The email indicates that there was no obvious break in the skin. And anyone wonders why some of us are considering getting vaccinated against the virus?? yours, satx

    IF we all used "clay birds" made as you suggest, there would be much more HEALTHY/WELL-FED wildlife & less trash to clean up, too. yours, satx

    GOOD PLAN, imVho. Also, grazing/licking on ground/plants that an infected animal has left bodily fluids upon MAY expose the livestock/persons to the virus. "Passive transmission", as well as the danger of being bitten/scratched, is why numerous TX Master Naturalists are considering getting...

    Topic drift? NOPE. Instead the thread took an entirely different direction (after an important question was asked,) once the original topic seems to have been exhausted. yours, satx

    100& CORRECT. = The "silent form", that can even be spread by body fluids left on surfaces, is especially scary to me. (Fwiw, I'm a TX Master Naturalist & I'm considering getting the vaccine against rabies, as all TMN "come in close contact with" various wildlife. - Remember, you need NOT be...

    YES, the symptoms of the two forms are very different. = Until the victim is bitten or scratched, the carrier of "the dumb form" may exhibit few or NO obvious symptoms, other than a "certain unsteadiness, shortly before death occurs" upon their feet/paws. (4 of the 6 survivors of the disease...

    The so-called "furious form" & the so-called "dumb form" (sometimes called, "silent rabies") of rabies sare caused by at least THREE similar viruses: Lyssavirus, Ephemovirus & Vesiculovirus. (There is also a similar virus, that seems to only affect bats in Australia/NZ, that MAY be yet another...

    Fwiw, there is a "form" of rabies that doesn't exhibit "the usual appearance" of rabies. = For that reason, ANY **** or skunk that I see in the daytime quickly joins "the ranks of the dear departed". yours, satx

    I was wondering if there is a beer joint that caters to squirrels in Dave's neighborhood. (CHUCKLE) Fwiw, we have any number of "squirrels" in our neighborhood who get soused & stagger around drunk. yours, satx

    Had I not delivered the "squirrel stew" that Winter night, it would have been embarrassing, inasmuch as I'd provided it to the club's wild game dinner for about a dozen years. yours, satx

    Sauerkraut

    While I certainly ate/enjoyed a lot of homemade sauerkraut over 4 decades plus, that was made by my late Aunt Molly, I've never made a single cup-full. (Her recipe for kraut was one of her secrets that she took with her when she "walked on".) Several women in my mother's family had GREAT...

    Actually you can actually make dishes that taste like squirrel WITHOUT any squirrels.

    IF the squirrels are young enough, you can batter & fry them as if they were chicken. Otherwise, you have already received GOOD advice. yours, satx
