Up close, they're evil-looking and smelly. Gutting and plucking them, they're even smellier. By the time the chicken's in the pot, I'm not interested in eating chicken anymore. But I must say I'm fond of them when they're pre-plucked, pre-cleaned, pre-dismembered, and ice-cold in their nice little plastic trays in the supermarket. ;-)Diane Hendershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07563115165301223420noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5108355111065091083.post-12130813582026499342016-04-18T19:48:34.568-07:002016-04-18T19:48:34.568-07:00JACKIESUE, Their dinosaur genes come through now a...JACKIESUE, Their dinosaur genes come through now and then.

And then I had a brand new camera in my hands and stumbled over a root. All I could think was to raise my hands that held the camera. I looked a bit disheveled (huge understatement), but the camera was unharmed. I'm just glad there's no video of that incident.Pixel Peeperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17553862902461169270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5108355111065091083.post-60672256882559974312016-04-16T08:43:21.900-07:002016-04-16T08:43:21.900-07:00I am extremely injury prone myself but that is no ...I am extremely injury prone myself but that is no mystery; I am right brained (as you probably can figure out) and naturally left handed, but like most of my generation in this country my parents compelled me, as a child, to use my right hand for everything.
