Then there was the chicken and pepper paella...all chicken on the bone so you get the best bits for the stock..I roast them off first to brown them and skim the fat a bit..or it does make it a bit too fatty.

I took a chicken carcass down to make a chicken stock/soup too..but both pressure cookers were occupied..so it will be waiting for tomorrow. :coffee:

Now...what do you fancy trying First..?.....:vibe:

BTW..don't tell Hubby...he Think I just have a lazy day while he is out playing golf..and I Think it is quite endearing that he Still believes there is a Food Fairy who comes in and cooks all these things while he is Asleep...:snooze:......


Not....:rolleyes1:
 
I'd put out little nooses for them to hang themselves with if they'd be so kind...............

No, I don't like sticky traps that amounts to torture. But good old spring traps do qiute well!

Karma and mouse traps

So, we apparently had just the right conditions along this stretch of the high plains this spring that the rodent population pretty much exploded. I've been dealing with mice around the house like crazy that I didn't have before. They've gotten so good at avoiding the snap traps that I finally caved in and bought a couple of glue strip traps yesterday. Well, as soon as the first little dude got stuck I just couldn't take the watching it struggle to get free as the terror sets in. Soooooo...I ended up wussing out and took the cooking oil to it to free the little bugger. Put it in a tall trash can with some paper for bedding a little food and some water to get it through the night before taking it to a park in the AM. Anyhow, this is where karma kicks in. When I awoke this morning I found that another mouse had become stuck in the kitchen sink. I was able to easily capture and transfer it to the trash can with the other and freed them both in the park. I've never had one trap itself in the sink before, so I like to think it was the universe at work thanking me from sparing the first one from the horrible, horrible glue trap (despite me being the evil being who placed the trap in the first place).

P.S. In a further twist of fate, the one trapped in the sink appeared to have went there for a small dab of peanut butter on a knife that was leftover from using the knife to bait the snap traps the mouse emptied before moving on to the sink. :woohoo1:
 
In regards to Pop22's tag line, did you know that the monster with the bolts in his neck is not called Frankenstein. The creator is Dr Frankenstein, but the monster is not called that.

Plus rep to the first with the correct answer. And NO googling.......eP
