Crisis in the Parker Home! Our freezer is so cold, it burns everything you put inside within a week. The nob is broken off. JP tried adjusting it once with pliers, but it didn't change. So he tried again.
Ahem. With Success.
We woke this morning to a completely thawed freezer. And the fridge above was warm too. The milk is bad and now my coffee is black.
And I'm starting my day to the smell of Trader Joe's Orange Chicken frying. To be followed by buffalo wings. Then chicken breasts. It's only 8:33 am. The big pink isn't helping me. JP is happily frying and singing, "Orange Chicken... In the Mornin!" He's a morning person.
So, if you're in the Seattle area and feel like bringing a tub of mashed potatoes or cole slaw over, breakfast is on the Parkers! Chicken n waffles? The door's open.
Share the winnings!
(If you haven't seen Waking Ned Devine, get your Netflix on. The chicken dinner is key.)
The fact that I can TOTALLY see Jason singing while he fries up chicken in the morning made me laugh heartily.

You remind me of a few summers ago. Stocked fridge and freezer, ninety degees, out-of-town guests arriving at dusk. Refrigerator goes kaput. Ahhh.

Girl, consider yourself lucky that it's JP frying the chicken and not you! Is there anything worse that frying chicken? :) Thank goodness for chicken sandwiches, chicken salad, chicken soup, and the rest of the 100 ways to make chicken! Black coffee? Hard core! I like it! hee hee! :)

Angi!! That's horrifying... and with company too? I'd have fainted dead away. Then ordered out for Thai food.
Bella & Amber-- Isn't it funny? I hate morning and have to edge into them gingerly and carefully. Orange chicken at 8:30 just Can't happen. But JP happily fried, marinated, and SANG. Morning people don't realize how close they come to be killed by night people.
