It’s another country

You know you’ve really moved outta town when your local paper features tractor dancing AND a recipe for stuffed muskrat, both on the front page of the second section. There’s so much to learn! The tractor action is a kind of square dancing, only with vintage tractors, planned as a highlight of this year’s International Plowing Match, to be held in our own Bruce County. I was trying to remember the one time I went to a plowing match with my dad. I must have been in my teens and very unappreciative. All I can recall is muddy fields and makeshift booths. If I can make this year’s event, I’ll be looking around with a whole new perspective.
And the muskrat recipe? Well, it starts with 2 muskrats, dressed. Haven’t seen such a thing yet on my market visits, but I’m open to possibilities.
