So I just made one of those mental metric mistakes.
I know that 1 kilo is equal to 2.2 pounds.
How do I know this? 21 Jump Street. (I can still hear Officer Hanson saying “Two point Two pounds” in my head.)
On my way home from the office, I thought I’d make a simple gumbo out of a package I bought in New Orleans. As I vaguely recalled, it needed 2 pounds of chicken. So I hopped on over to the store, bought about a kilo of Chicken, came home, read the directions and thought to myself, “Damn! I need another pound of chicken.”
So I decided to make this Redi-Mix Jambalaya that I bought while in New Orleans. It called for 8 ounces of chicken. After carving up two-thirds of the chicken and dumping it in the pot, it suddenly occurred to me that I had way too much chicken in the pot and the metric math came flooding back to me.
I hope it tastes good. It’s still cooking.
In my experience, you can never have too much meat.
Thanks Mike, I just spit C2 cola on my computer. 🙂
I’m sure the vegetarians among us would beg to differ, but I don’t think that’s quite the reason Chris had to mop up his keyboard! 😉
As a girl, I must agree with Mike. 😉 Size *does* matter. (oh wait … we’re talking about gumbo. Nevermind)
As long as we’re going down this road, I have to say, I don’t object to chicken.
😀
Does that make me a Chicken Hawk?
