His hands reached out for me….sort of. I mean he was dead. Technically. It was kind of hard to make out it with the seasoning salt, but I was positive what it was. Enough of me reading Curious George as a young girl let me know I wasn’t a fool. I was staring in the face (well chest) of dead monkey paw. Well, paws. And the arm attachment. Little monkey biceps. In an Ali stance. Like he died fighting for his life.
I give the little monkey props. He didn’t go out like no punk, I mean he fought…he didn’t want to be part of nobody’s stew and I commend that. Because I sure as hell didn’t want to find him in mine. And driving past the market I realized that I am and will be more than a picky eater. I am OC.
Dried Monkey Paw. Nothing better to reconfirm my faith in chicken. I am more than a believer of chicken at this point in my life, I am an advocate. A crusader, a fighter for the justice and right to eat only chicken meals. I don’t want to discover the jungle in my rice dish…. just stick to your basic farm animals, and it all starts with the chicken.
It is the universal meat. I mean, I haven’t been anyplace there hasn’t been chicken on the menu. It is the “We Are the World” of foods. During peace talks, things will work a bit smoother if they bring some chicken on the table. I haven’t seen anyone mad and eat chicken at the same time. Chicken is the peace meat. It is the meat of global unity. It is the dish that brings us all together sing Kumbayah.
My dedication of chicken however is lacking in one department. It is the knowledge that I posses of how to prepare chicken. I pretty much can fry it, and quick bake it. That’s it. I mean, yeah, I am one of those women who had detoured around the saying “The way to a man’s heart is through his stomach.” Its not that I can’t cook, its just that no man has slowed me down to the level where I am trying to figure out the difference between bay leaves and oregano. I mean, do you know how many food entities I support? Why should I be so selfish to cook on my own and then do my own dishes when the dying economy needs people like me to spend money?
So this is an interactive blog. A call if you will. A tribute to the Chicken and all the different ways you can bake, fry, sizzle, sauté, smoother, and grease it. I am calling for recipes. To help me out in my dedication to chicken, help me be able to cook it in a multitude of ways. A variety of choices for my daily dinner. Because I am pretty much ge
tting to a point in my life that if I don’t cook it, I might not eat it.
So help me if you will, I enlist all those who have held a spatula in hand. I need recipes to help spice up my life or just my chicken dinners if you will…. Submit them today!!
