So my wife and I have been married going on 45 years. She says it’s been 30 of the best years of her life. (WTH ?)I came from an outdoors hunting and fishing family and she was basically a city girl. When we started dating the wildest thing she had ever eaten was a store bought chicken. Needless to say it was somewhat of a culture shock when we got married.
About a month after we were married,I came home from work and asked my new bride how her day was. She replied by saying that she came close to calling a lawyer and getting an annulment. I asked why she was upset. After all we really hadn’t been married long enough for me to mess up that bad. She replied by saying that my mom had paid her a visit and my mind was saying lord only knows where this is going to go.
Well my mom showed up saying that I know my son hasn’t had his favorite meal in a while so I brought him dinner. She was standing at the door with a covered dish so my young bride let her in. My wife took the dish and asked what it was. Mom replied that it was squirrel and dumplings. My bride thought it was a joke so she took the lid off of the dish and got a spoon and stirred it around a little bit. First she saw a leg then back and rib section and then the head popped up. At that particular time she told me that she felt like she had married into the Beverly Hillbillies. I told her that she didn’t have to eat it. But she just DEFINITELY needed to learn how to make it !!!
