Personal Notes:
My favorite meal that my mom cooked for me was roasted quail breast, mashed potatoes and mashed rutabaga. During the war we always had a "Victory Garden" where we grew all our own vegetables, thus the fresh rutabaga. Then we would go hunting for quail and rabbits. (John T Kilmartin)
