I'm sorry about that delousing. Just standard procedure.

Today is Ed's birthday. We had a great day. We went to the zoo. We were landed on by Lorikeets, nibbled on by mad goats and rode the train around Brackenridge Park. I decided to make Ed one of his favorite meals, chicken fried chicken, mashed potatoes, green beans and cream gravy. I have several cannisters on the counter with sugar, flour, etc. I make the coating, mixture of flour and seasonings and a bath of milk and egg. As I dredge the breasts, I see the flour mixture is not sticking and instead it is making a weird eggy batter. Whatever, I slather it on and toss the chicken into the fryer. I see that the coating does not stick at all and instead the chicken just has a thin layer that is almost like a glaze. I cut it open. It's tender and looks good. I serve some to Ed and myself. I take a bite. "Hmmm, this chicken tastes sweet. I mean it's good, just sweet." Ed takes a bite. "Did you put some honey on it?" "No, I didn't put anything sweet like that just fajita seasoning, paprika, and flou... OMG that wasn't flour! It was powered sugar!!" hahahahahaha. How funny is that?! I grabbed the wrong cannister and made a coating mixture with powered sugar and it caramelized on the chicken! hahahahahaha! Only the outside was sweet so we ate it anyways. Now Ed is having a sugar rush and my stomach is a little upset from to much sweet stuff. Ed just said his teeth hurt! hahahahaha! So how was your dinner?

zoo, birthday, ed
