A Recipe for Crow

Whitey Bulger captured due to a tip to the FBI! FBI tweets news of capture! After 16 years it only took the women of America a couple of days to track down Whitey and his girlfriend? Hmm, seems a little suspicious to me, but let's go with it. I should definitely be eating crow after Tuesday's blog.

Crows have a poor reputation as a culinary delight mainly because of their scavenger lifestyle. However, since many delicacies like crab and lobster are scavengers as well, crow is probably edible. So here is a recipe for Crow Kebobs:

 Take 16 raw boneless, skinless crow breasts and marinate overnight in Italian dressing. On eight metal skewers skewer the breasts alternately with pieces of green pepper and sweet corn, cherry tomatoes, and button mushrooms. Brush the skewers with a generous amount of butter and place on a pre-heated grill for four minutes. Flip the skewers brush with butter again and place back on the grill for another four minutes. Repeat one more time for a total cooking time of 12 minutes.

Sounds delicious, tastes like chicken (Doesn't everything?).

So now that my cherished belief that the FBI didn't want to catch Whitey has been shattered (OK, dented because I can still see a conspiracy theory docudrama in my future), do I have to give up believing in 85 year old guys chasing 25 year old girls as well? Hef looks fairly spry to me so I think I'll hold on to that belief for  a while longer. Check back in 22 years.

Excuse the short blog today I've been scanning the skies for crows. Back to history tomorrow-the dead are so much more reliable than the living-thanks a lot Whitey!
