CHICKEN TONIGHT ! 🧡 BRIAN & ANGELA 🧡 A CULLINARY SONNET
Goldfinch60 said:
I too enjoy chicken and cook it in many ways.
As to the KFC conspiracy I wouldn\'t know as I have never been in a KFC shop, I am a firm believer in cooking form scratch and have been cooking for over 60 years.
Joyce and I did go into a McDonalds once back in the 1980\'s and I swore I would never go in one again, a promise kept!
Good tasty write.

ANGELA & BRIAN said:
BRIAN here ! HI UNSUB thanks for your very interesting comments on the KFC Conspiracy Theory ~ Coming from ANGLESEA I guess you would be interested in the Supernatural. Its true what you say KFC does seem to defy Time & Space. Ive been to the Original in Kentucky (The wierdest State in the USA !) and the taste etc was identical to the ones we have in Essex ! And yes they are are not spacious enough for what they do ~ also they never run out. Once @ Church we had about 100 turn up for an FCS (Fish an\' Chip Supper) we were about to order from a local CHIPPY when someone sggested why dont we have KFC instead ? I was well known at the KFC so I said I would go and investigate ! I said we want 100 standard KFC dinners for a Fund Raiser at the Church. he said when I said 10 minutes ! He said OK we\'ll deliver @ £5 per box (£5OO) you can pay later. I got back said its on its way ~ 10 minutes later the Van turned up with the KFC and 4 waitresses to serve us and make sure every one had a Drink etc. I charged every one £10 (It was a Fund Raiser for Lesotho) and we also served Strawberries & Cream and Coffee. Everyone had a great time and the Veggies had QUORN KORMA ! There were two miracles ! ONE I still dont know how they managed 100 portions in 10 minutes. TWO I hadnt told them it was a *Fundraiser for Africa* but when I came to pay the BILL (£500) they denied all knowledge and said we would want at least a weeks notice for such an order ! When I told them @ the Church next Sunday they were amazed and said it was the best Chicken they had ever tasted and became regulars @ KFC ! We had a Faith Offering on the Sunday and it raised another £500 and we were able to send £1000 to Lesotho towards a Community Centre. The Strawberries had been donated by a local Farmer !
Thanks for SHARING
Blessings & Peace
Yours BRIAN & ANGELA

I agree. Though in music most of use achieve enjoyment and satisfaction rather than striving for that excellence. As an amateur/ex semi-pro musician the following phrase taught me my limitations - \"an amateur will practice till he gets it right - a professional will practice until he cannot get it wrong\"... that would really take a lot of time and dedication and passing through pain barriers.
To envy is said to be a sin (i can\'t agree with that in the moderrn useage of the word) but i am envious of those musicians of excellence.

I share your enthusiasm for work. I am self employed so i guess enthusiasm is a \'part of the territory\'. I can\'t really imagine a self employed person being un-enthusiastic about their own work somehow. I guess the self employed are a breed apart, though having said that, there are many employees equally as enthusiastic about their work.
I think it\'s somehow related to your recent \'glass half full\' outlook on life.

HOLA BRIAN - El Mio OSO GRANDE ! Gracias por esta Poem a Me gusta ! Yes you are the ultimate OPTIMIST and its just as well Im a bit more cautious or we would be living in a Tree House in Mexico and sailing round the World in a Catamaran ! But I LOVE YOU and we must have dreams when we are still young enough to enjoy them. I am very very OPTIMISTIC abut our FUTURE and despite the fact that N Island NZ is like Paradise - I am now ready to come HOME. I am so pleased you are coming to get me as RUTH is leaving in September (she is now getting married in November so I will be able to be a Bridesmaid !). It will be excellent to be able to say GOODBYE to all our Maori & Kiwi friends TOGETHER and they are planning a Pre-wedding FIESTA for us - Amen !
See you very soon !
Muchos Abrazos y Besos y todo de Mi Amor - siempre !
Tu Angelita Amorada ! 🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡

Thanks for sharing the optimistic vibe!
Things like feeling, vibrations, or sensations...maybe positive or even negative.
I get that from chats, or writings such as yours.
It\'s not necessarily in the words or sentences, but everything as a whole.
