Unexpected guest for lunch today

We've got a glut of rabbits this year, raising cain in gardens and flower beds. It's sure to be a good year come rabbit hunting season. Normally I shoo a garden thief off at least once, giving him one free strike, so to speak, but of course my protestations usually fall upon deaf rabbit ears. I think if you're going to resort to more drastic, permanent measures it's only proper and respectful to make honorable use of the animal...and we happen to love rabbit as an entree.

Breaded rabbit with hot pepper honey sauce; fried carrots and small salad of greens & cherry tomatoes; purslane relish & sweet vidalia onions.
