Sorry to say, but this site has been so depressing for a few days. I thought I'd ask an average, everyday question....to make us all feel a little more normal today.
I made Eggplant Lasagna, and my BIL and SIL are coming for dinner. They leave for Cali tomorrow to see their beautiful grand daughter.
Sorry, sometimes we just need some REGULAR conversation.......or at least THIS caregiver does.
Lu I can see it now. That was funny. :)
So weird isn't it? In bakeries they sell Bear claws and in grocery store Chicken Paws, and frog legs, pigs feet.
I imagine there is more meat on the rest of the animals than their hands and feet? Just sayin'
I think these are very stimulating conversations Lu. :)
Just one of the disadvantages of living alone, not a whole lot of variety and many, many leftovers in the freezer.
I guess they are a big seller since people can't keep their paws off of them. :)
Learn something new everyday.
Pigs have wings and chickens have paws, what a crazy world.
Definitely not finger lickin' good. Definitely Not!
Had a neighbor once that would ask my Dad for the chicken feet whenever he butchered the chickens. I always wondered how he cooked them. To each their own.
"Chicken Paws" are what theyr'e called at the grocery store.I didn't know chickens had paws.To some people,maybe they are finger lickin' good,but I'm not one of them.
You know how good bone broth is, right? Well, chicken feet are full of the protein that makes aspic, gelatin, etc. When you cool it down, you have what my house calls chicken jelly which is perfect to put on top of some rice!
We used to raise our own chickens and saved the feet for our pastor's Korean wife and our BVI friends. Everyone loves thick broth. Since hubby was told to go vegan for his heart, we have not had any, but we sure do miss it.
Now I see why you said to report you!
Chicken fingers....
Finger lickin' good!
It's what's for dinner on a full moon, I think.
The chicken feet are served fried as is, you eat exactly what you see.
They are actually really tasty but I couldn't deal with the texture. I also couldn't feel comfortable spitting out chicken parts in public.
Although I am not surprised if chickens did have fingers with all the steroids and antibiotics they are filled with.
My DH cannot eat chicken or turkey bought either grocery or fast food, he is like an antibiotic tester. If it is all natural, he is fine, but if it has some junk in it he gets welps all over face and body for about a half an hour. Itchy. Its awful. So he doesn't eat any fowl unless harvested in nature or we raised them. Needless to say with my fondness of my chickens that I raise, no one eats chicken around here. :)
Just the eggs.
Well! I am so pleased, shocked, really, that I just made tacos and they were incredibly easy ... wait for it... and tasty! I am in shock. The recipe found on “Dinner at the Zoo” was wonderful. Just thought I’d share my breakthrough today!
My fingers don't look like that!
Thanks for the beef stroganoff recipe! Must be comfort food, cause went to bed early and slept all night.
The only other "fingers" I know cwillie,are chicken fingers I saw at the grocery store.They look like real fingers too,just gross.
Golden, I love my veggies but I don't think I could make one into a whole meal!
I have turned the coolest basement bedroom window ledge into cold storage for fruits and veggies. Wish I had a root cellar.
lu - rutabaga are sometimes called turnips, but are larger and yellow,
Rutabagas are the result of some promiscuous turnips crossing with wild cabbages in the 1600s, and while they contain the genes of both veggies, they’re considered a part of the cruciferous family of vegetables (cousins include broccoli and Brussels sprouts) and pack similar health benefits.

I sometimes make a meal of a baked yam. Might have to try rutabaga.
With the ice and snow here,I sure don't want to get out today,so I was thrilled to find some hamburger in the freezer and a yellow cake mix in the cupboard this morning.Now were all set for dinner and dessert tonight.
I don't know what a Rutabaga is,but it sounds like a Radish to me and I don't think I'd ever want a whole meal of that,but you go Golden.Your'e a healthy eater,I can tell.
Maybe that's why I don't get much GERD. Too much sugar and I don't like it. Give me a raw carrot or a couple of squares of 70% chocolate instead.
Supper last night was a small rutabaga, some crackers and hummus. Every now and again I want to make a meal of rutabaga Weird I know! 😉
But it does have vitamin c, so that is the salad to counter act the canned ravioli. :) According to Send. :)
