i love chicken balls! i make a chicken mince and coconut milk version - delish! btw are you changing your email subs to Follow.it? - now that Feedburner won't be doing emails for blog posts anymore. Other bloggers are going to try Follow.it. They say it's easy to change over. I hope so! i wish Google would stop changing things on Blogger Grrrrrr!
Thanks Sherry! I haven't worked out what I am going to do yet. I was irritated and meant to ask a few people but actually put it out of my mind. Thanks for the tip. I will explore Follow.it. I think this might have been Feedburner rather than Google though. The chicken with coconut milk version sounds worth a try. I will check it out.
