Recipe for, POSSUM PIE
1 live possum
1 c. flour
1 stick butter
1 lg. Cool Whip
3 c. milk
2 tsp. vanilla
Grated chocolate Hershey Bar
1 1/4 c. nuts, chopped
1 (8 oz.) pkg. cream cheese
1 1/4 c. powdered sugar
1 pkg. instant chocolate pudding
1 pkg. instant vanilla pudding

Mix flour, 1/2 of the nuts and butter. Press into big pan 9 x 13 x 2 inches. Bake at 325 degrees for 20 minutes. Let crust cool. Mix cream cheese, 1/2 of Cool Whip, 1 cup powdered sugar and vanilla. Spread over cool crust. Mix instant chocolate and instant vanilla pudding, milk, 1/4 cup powdered sugar and spread over first layer. Refrigerate until pudding firms. Then top with rest of Cool Whip, sprinkle with nuts and grated chocolate. Now let the possum fill his belly with the above creation and then turn him loose. He is almost guaranteed to return, and more then likely will bring friends.
("Important Disclaimer", To my family and many friends who have pet possums, the above recipe was a attempt at humor, please do not feed your pet possum anything that contains chocolate.)

Well for the second time when I went to collect eggs, a possum had filled his belly with our fresh eggs, and then went to sleep in one of the nest boxes.

The next question was what to do with this little varmint?
Ending his life because he likes our eggs was out of the question. Another thought was to relocate him across town. This would solve our problem but I took two things into consideration.
First, I don't think it is very nice to relocate a animal in the middle of winter. He would need to find a new food source and a new den for protection from the bitter cold and predators that would like to have him for lunch.
Second, I believe it may be illegal to relocate a wild animal in CT.

So the only solution possum loving people like us have, bring him in, name him Frank, and wait until warmer weather. And for the record, Jordan named him Frank Possum.
