3 of us spent about 5-6 hrs yesterday preparing and marinating the chicken wings. All in all, we had about 320-350 pieces of chicken wings where we literally pressed out as much oil as we could from the skins. This was something I didn’t know but it was shocking to see the amount of fat and some white bits coming out of the skin. Well, suffice to say that I’m rethinking eating chicken wings as seems more than a bit dirty.

My cousin’s friend, SA, had a great sense of humour. We ended up laughing a lot more than expected.

These chicken are lucky. They’re getting very good massage.

(Mixing marinade) This is fun. Grind grind grind the salt and bijeng (MSG).

Anyway, today is a round of frying the chickens. Hopefully, we can get everything done by then. 300 pieces is scary.

Yes yes, as per the title, I’m helping out at the Salvation Army’s Sale of Work. I’m helping out my cousin Em to sell Fried Chickens. It would be 3 pcs for RM10 which isn’t too bad considering the fuel price hike. Even before the fuel increase, at Charity Food Events the fried chicken was already going for 3 pcs for RM10.

Anyway, please do come. There will be tickets sold on that day. Plus, we have about 680 pieces of chicken to sell. Yes, a huge number so please do come and help us out. I’m not even sure whether we can get that many chickens sold off but we’re hoping to tempt the children who in turn will beg their parents to buy it. Hee hee!

Date : 31 August 2006 (Yes, Merdeka Day)
Time : 8 am – 12 pm
Location : Salvation Army Boy’s Home, Ban Hock Road

Note that there may be a huge congestion on that day because of the Merdeka Day Parade. So, take Deshon Road and park near Grand Continental Hotel. I’m not sure whether most of Ban Hock Road is open or not, so it’s either come early or come late.

Anyway, do stop by. The sale is for the Salvation Army activities in Kuching where they look after 2 homes for children (orphans or from improvised families), one all-girls, another all-boys.

(AND PLEASE HELP TO GET RID BUY 680 PIECES OF CHICKEN. WE DON’T REALLY WANT TO EAT SO MUCH CHICKEN FOR THE NEXT FEW DAYS)
