When Jon's grandma "Ladybug" passed away, Judy, my mother-in-law gave me one of grandma's cookbooks. The cookbook is from 1972 and is a Methodist Cookbook. There are some real great recipes in there and throughout the cookbook there are some real silly ones.
Recently, I have been scouring my cookbooks for some new recipes. I don't know if it's because of the warmer temperatures or the fact that we will be going to the States in a couple of weeks but I just haven't felt like cooking or baking lately.
I came across this recipe the other day and I must have been real tired because when I read it, I couldn't stop laughing.
ELEPHANT SOUP
1 elephant (medium size)
2 rabbits (optional)
Salt and pepper
Cut the elephant into small, bite size pieces. Add enough brown gravy to cover. Cook over kerosene fire about 4 weeks at 465 degrees. This will serve 3,800 people. If more are expected, two rabbits may be added. But do this only in an emergency; as most people do not like hare in their stew!
