it is friday and traditionally on a friday night we have chicken for shabbat dinner, and if not a whole chicken than at the very least chicken soup.
who doesn't love chicken, if not for its taste then for its versatility. you can turn a chicken into a french meal, an italian meal, chinese, mexican, middle eastern, indian, practically every type of regional cooking has a good chicken recipe. and for the kids, chicken wings, chicken fingers and the every popular chicken mcnugget are sure to please.
this is one fine chicken pictured here. she's a beauty, her auburn feathers nicely streaked and i believe that lipstick is called "off with her red". she looks gorgeous don't you think, walking with determination and pride.
she is no spring chicken and neither am i. this is the birthday weekend kids. i am no spring chicken, i will be 57 on sunday.
i am looking forward to my birthday. tonight it is dinner with the kids and friends at a restaurant. sunday we are going ice fishing. yes, ice fishing. in a hut on the river. sunday afternoon, woo hoo, my saints will come marching in at the super bowl.
have a great weekend!
