A little Dove for dinner anyone? WARNING!! This Blog NOT for animal lovers, just eaters! :)

The other day my Hubba Husband Dan shot a few dove out of our back yard. He does this all the time. Our house backs up to a large wash where many critters live, or lived until the Perkins moved in. It is a 'Father Daughter' kind of thing since he shoots, they watch, he skins them, they watch some more, and then believe it or not, he grills them up, and they eat. I avoid the whole party because...who knows where those dove have been? Anyways, back to the story....I heard the girls playing outside and went to check. Dan is usually quick to 'take care' of the doves but that morning he went inside first for a bit and left the girls to their own creativity. Yes, I made them stop, and yes they washed their hands.
This guy got microwaved.

This one went in the fridge for later.

And this one with the missing head went in the oven (yes, missing. Quickest way to put them out of their misery if they are still twichin).

Food Network prodigies? Look at those smiles!
Back to work! Someone has to put dinner on the table!

  2. OH.MY.HECK. That is like the funniest thing I've ever read! They are so cute.

    Mmm...I'm gonna cook me up a mess of quail, or even better, some magpie the next time they show up to terrorize my dog. That'll teach 'dem critters.
