Baked By the Chicken



March 2, 2014

I’d left the six breaded drumsticks in Mrs “Bs” oven last night. Yes, it was turned “OFF.” I didn’t realize until 2:00am, give or take a few hours. Impossible to call her and ask to toss the pan in the freezer, or better yet, place them in a plastic ziplock to store. Unfortunately, by the time I could reach her, she insists I come to her place and take care of the cooked poultry.

Mirrors smashed against the door of vehicles parked along the side of the road, indicate a slippery street. Creeping along, breaking every few feet is the only solution. Getting to Mrs. “B’s” chicken rescue takes twice as long as it should. I open the door to her place and find her, none to keen on my error, telling me I need to take the chicken home for the dog, she cannot eat it. I will buy her another package of drumsticks and Shake ‘N Bake them my next scheduled day. Toss a salad and heat up her dinner while she runs to the toilet. Now I am a very unhappy camper but know the Park Ranger has spoken.
