It all started when I married this man:
We have a strict hunting policy in the Dunn household: 1) Don't kill it unless you will eat it. 2) Don't kill it unless it wants to kill you. I think alligators meet both of those criteria. So, this year my husband (and I) killed four alligators.
Don't be jealous. Even if your man can't grow a beard like that...

Which means we processed three alligators in our driveway.
Yeah, that's my driveway...
Which also means that he owes me a nice piece of jewelry in thanks for dealing with a skinned out alligator in my driveway.
Which also means that we have mucho pounds of alligator meat in our freezer. This is where you come in, friends:
We have been accepted as a competitor in the first annual "Bears N Beans Chili Cook-off" at local Swamp Head Brewery. So, help us eat some alligator.

I'm actually insanely sorry to miss this and that cool things are happening in Gainesville now that I've moved away! I'm also insanely happy to be the sole commenter.
ReplyDeleteWhoa. So much alligator, so little time. Y'all are impressive.
ReplyDeleteKaren -- Morgan, Hollis and I are totally going. Suggestion: come to Gainesville, stay in my spare room (the dogs will sleep on the bed with you (you don't have a choice), and we can all go together.
ReplyDeleteDeal?
I am in full agreement with Caroline's suggestion. BTW.
ReplyDeleteI totally would if I did not have to freaking work that weekend. (I have only one off in Feb)
ReplyDeleteWhen is the next cook-off/super fun thing in the Gainesville? I'll clear my calendar for real.
I miss you fun people. Like, A LOT.
