Problem is the chips are down to crumbs. I’m trying to figure out using them as a coating on the chicken (baking seems reasonable), but I’m not sure about getting them to stick.

How about the old coat the chicken in mayo trick?  
And by the way, BANANAS ARE EVIL, FOUL, AND DISGUSTING!!!

egg wash then smash the chicken in the crumbs to get them to stick? I think the mayo would be good by itself but with the Doritos may get too greasy.

Ahahaha, 😛

The question is who thinks it is a boy and who thinks it is a girl.

Silly **Swampy**

And that’s why you never ask a gay man a serious question about children. 😛

I’m voting Celeste because I really like that name.

LOL.

I love Celeste, but I would also love a Gavin, so I don’t know what I want.

Sure it’s not twins again? 😃

I think the egg idea has its merits, since you probably have a point about mayo making the whole affair a bit oilier than I’d probably like.

**2gig** , you are evil!

I like that…

I usually have Saturdays off, but I’m afraid I won’t make it to **Moooom** ’s neck of the woods, either ☹ Just a _ **tad** _ too far out of my way…

I made fruitcake. The fruit was marked down to .75 at the Kavanaugh Kroger.  
$0.75! It’s usually like fifty bucks or something.

$0.75!!!

As far as I know, I am the only person in North America who likes it, and it is mine, _ **ALL MINE!!**! (Cue evile laughter.)_

Oh yes, there are dates instead of nasty, evil raisins.

Well obviously \*you \*had to do it! 😛

Laundry is done. Dog has peed in the house twice, the brat. :mad: Lunch was the last of the N.O.T. soup. I’m about to attack the kitchen. I’s tahred - I want to nap. But I can’t - I’m making water for the fish tank water change, and if I don’t monitor it, the basement gets flooded. Good times. :rolleyes:
