Friends

From one of the great albums of last year that I mentioned at the time of release but probably didn’t get around to listing when I was trying to sum up the year.

G’night.

Have been reading about some of the new products being shown off at the 2010 Consumer Electronics Show being held in Las Vegas right now, and a couple jumped out at me as being pretty neat.

First, the new LaCie iamaKey and WhizKey, which I like for both their looks and capabilities. I've been keeping an eye out for a metal cased USB storage drive that was small AND pleasing to look at. While I'd prefer something a bit cuter, these would definitely tide me over until that perfect one is found.

And secondly, the AR Drone (that is iPhone/iPod Touch controlled) is... just bloody cool. Period. I don't see myself ever buying one, but it's already near the top of my list of things I just need to play with once in my life.

recipe behind the cut

1 cup flour (half sweet rice flour, half brown rice flour)
2 tsp paprika
1 tsp salt
1 tsp dried sage
1/2 tsp pepper
1 tbsp sugar
1 tbsp olive oil

mix them all in the food processor. i added the oil last, while it was going.

i put about half in a bag, maybe a little over half. it was just enough for 6 large leg/thigh combos. (the rest is jarred in the freezer now.)

preheat oven to 375. rinse chicken in cold water, do NOT pat dry, shake 1 at a time in bag and put on baking tray (i used a broiler pan with rack).

bake 40-50 minutes or until all juices run clear.

granted i haven't had real shake n bake in 10+ years, but this was WONDERFUL.
