Recipe

In her youth (Sallie Ann says that she was around the age of 11-12), Sallie Ann was given the chore of preparing chicken for dinner for her family.  Along with the cooking of it, Sallie Ann first had to “prepare” the live fowl for the frying pan.  In the “preparation process”, the doomed chicken made a run for it, fleeing into the nearby woods. After several hours, the bird was located and herded back home. Dinner was then prepared, using this recipe, for “Runaway Chicken”.  :o)

Sallie Ann’s version of this humorous childhood memory can be found in her cookbook 
Gullah Home Cooking the Daufauskie Way, page 99.

Runaway Fried Chicken

1 young chicken, plucked, cleaned, and cut into parts
sprinkle paprika
sprinkle salt and black pepper
1 and 1/2 cups cooking oil
1 and 1/2 cups flour

Season the cleaned chicken with paprika, salt, and pepper.  Heat the 
oil in a deep skillet.  Flour the chicken by placing it in a bag (paper or
plastic) with the flour and shaking to coat.  Remove the chicken pieces
from the bag and shake off extra flour.  Test the oil temperature by drop-
ping in a dab of flour, which should brown, not burn.  Add the chicken to
the oil.  Cook thoroughly, turning occasionally, until golden brown on all
sides.

 Cooking with Gammy

 Gammy time, this week, meant that my granddaughter and I enjoyed “studying” owls , and making Owl Belly Buttons to eat! :o)


Owl Belly Buttons and an Owl Craft

This easy-to-make, three-ingredient treat has been made with varying colors of m&m’s over the years to fit the “occasion”, such as orange and black for “scarecrow” or “jack-o-lantern” belly buttons, yellow, orange, and brown for “turkey” belly buttons (Yes, they would look exactly like those in the photo below!  :O)), red and green for “reindeer” belly buttons, and …well you get the idea. :o)

For the recipe, click here.

This is an easy-to-make, three-ingredient treat.

Isn’t this handprint owl cute?

Made Me Smile  :o)

William Shatner’s Real Life Space Adventure

Yesterday, an emotional 90-year-old Captain Kirk ,William Shatner from Star Trek (1966-1969), fame took an almost 11-minute flight into space.  How cool is that?!

Click here, to listen to Shatner’s reactions after the flight.

I am a Star Trek fan from way back.
My favorite episode is the comical “The Trouble with Tribbles” S2, E15.
