I love those bacon wrapped fake crab things at Chinese buffets. I've made them myself.
Boy I miss them and the fried cheese wontons.
All Chinese take outs around here have been closed, get their supplies from the city and everything messed up right now.

Easy to make at home. We have been doing them for decades.

We use
1/4 C fake crab diced
3 green onions diced
1/8th teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon soy sauce
8 oz softened cream cheese
Wonton wrappers
One egg white mixed with 1 teaspoon water for sealing
Oil for frying
350° oil and fry just til browned

When folding we dot the center of each side with egg white and pinch to make the flower shape.

Freaking delicious!

@FortCluck , Red has an injured leg and is somewhat isolated to recover. @featherhead007 is giving her a hard time about it. We all must find ways to amuse ourselves these days. @featherhead007 wrestles with his roosters and takes them for drives. Recently the rooster BLU got the better of him, tearing him up inside his shirt. I suspect the rooster insisted on driving but @featherhead007 has neither confirmed nor denied that rumor.

ETA: I started the rumor.
2nd edit: corrected featherhead007's name.

I don't like Boris, or his school friends that occupy the conservative cabinet in UK parliament.
However, some good may yet come of this virus. Both Labour and Tory governments in the UK have for the past 20 years at least promoted to a greater or lesser extent the US model of private health care and in the process undermined and underfunded one of the few saving graces of the UK.
It is worth noting that when the shite hit the fan for Boris, it wasn't some private clinic that saved his life, it was the NHS (National Health System). One can only hope that when he has finished recovering and gets back to what psasses as a job being an MP and in his case, Prime Minister, when further cuts to the NHS are proposed he will remeber that it was the NHS that saved his life and not some private health care lash-up.

Woah Kiki if you think that amazing looking prime rib is gross, you’d faint if you saw how I bbq our tasty venison steaks - I like mine blue! That means seared outside and raw in the middle!
But since I do a lot of the hunting, most of the butchering and all of the cooking, I know it’s safe. Now sushi, I wouldn’t touch that with a ten foot pole. Or ceviche. Or any other raw fish product you’d care to name. The parasites you can get from raw fish - yikes! No thanks!

She doesn’t eat what she considers “raw” or “still alive” meat... that means she cooks it to death and only eats 100% totally grey meat

Edited to take the quotes out & tag instead cause it was wayyyyyy too long LOL

@featherhead007 @FortCluck @BigBlueHen53

you guys crack me up!!! Red is fine. @BigBlueHen53 is right. I put him back into the bachelor pen last night, alone, and Feather thinks he’s lonely. he probably is. I might put Jack back in there. But currently they’re both hiding inside due to this storm also Red’s pen is right near the other chickens

Actually I assume.. Sorry about that.

It’s okay!! @featherhead007 tell us who’s right!

That pink nastiness is way too cooked for me. Gotta have blue or rare!

To be fair, I did microwave it a couple times cause it got cold. so possibly cooked a tad more. But even so, would never eat it that raw.

And please don’t tell me you eat your burgers raw too!?
