Weird things happening to my comments.

True, but times have changed. Children are exposed to many things on media, the effects of which can be minimized but not totally eradicated.
Seniors have to make an effort to keep us with…[Read more]

@ruby3881 Chicken indeed is a very versatile dish.
@peachpurple We eat a lot of chicken in my house. Chicken is used in steaks, boneless chicken handi, chicken ginger, chicken shashlik and chicken in white sauce but the most favourite is chicken karahi.
