Did someone find brandy on sale this week?

This is the dish I typically make for Easter dinner. It's always a big hit with the children.

Nah, you know get to looking for one recipe and then find a bunch of them.

No, actually someone did find brandy and that was me. Actually I didnt find it on sale, it was from Dad's old stash. He's diabetic now and doesnt that stuff laying around the house. I saw an Emeril peppercorn sauce the other day and so I just had to pick up a stray bottle.

THanks for the rabbit recipe Rainee, hey what other food can you sub for rabbit? Game?
