Go out and shoot a couple of squirrels. Don’t use a shotgun. You will get too much shot in the meat. Skin and gut them and cut them into pieces. Put in a big soup pot with enough hot water to cover. Let simmer slowly until tender. Season with salt and lots of black pepper. Make dumplings by putting a pile of flour- about 2 cups- on a rolling board. Add a teaspoon of salt and 2 teaspoons of baking powder to flour. Make a well in the flour and add 4 tablespoons melted butter, and enough broth to make a nice dough and knead until the dough is tough. Roll dough as thin as possible and cut into one inch strips, Break the strips into tidbits as you drop into the boiling broth. Mom always added some butter and a can of milnot at the end after the dumplings were tender.
