Year of the Rabbit, in Guangdong, China

We have just entered the Chinese year of the rabbit, and anythime I think of any animal, I think about how it is usually food, in Guangdong.  Locals, in the countryside, still eat dog.  At the fresh seafood restaurant, they have waterbugs and silkworm cocoons.  At the local market, at the end of our street, you can see scorpions, snakes, frogs, turtles, alligators, and, of course, bunnies...

 

I used to make it every year for Thanksgiving, in the U.S., but I've only seen it one time on a menu of snacks at a cafe, in Qingdao.  Now, it's nice to see it in the local market.  Of course, the other problem is that Chinese apartments usually do not come equipped with an oven, so, I still have to wait for the day that I finally get a portable oven...it is fast approaching [too much else on my plate, so to speak].

Happy Lunar New Year from Guangdong.
