$4? Wow, down here, we usually pay about $7 for a whole chicken - not cut
up, which is fine. Allan's great at (this sounds bad!) whacking up a
chicken to fry. :~) I get squeamish. I can't do it.

We usually just cut up the chicken, put it in cornmeal mix with garlic and
pepper, shake, and fry. Still WAY cheaper than KFC and cheaper than the
grocery store deli fried chicken, too.

And, yep, Jill, KFC doesn't even taste good.
