first. LOL? Tonight, I came in from the yard after pulling weeds. It was past time for dinner. Grabbed a couple pieces of chicken from the freezer to defrost in the microwave. Meanwhile I got the broccoli ready to zap, lit the grill, and started the salad. I put the chicken on foil and looked in the spice cupboard for some seasoning. I grabbed the all purpose seasoning and the can of paprika. Then I noticed a little plastic bag of paprika that I bought from the "cheap" spice section. "Might as well use that up," I thought to myself. I opened the spice bag and shook it on both sides of the chicken with a little all purpose stuff. Onto the grill. I fixed the plates with the broccoli and the chicken, and we sat down to eat. I tasted a piece of chicken and said "This is some hot paprika." My husband said, "Oh Boy, it is hot!" I looked at the little bag and it was Cayenne Pepper! I never use Cayenne Pepper.

Had to wash them off with hot water so we could eat them.

Tell us your cooking story.
