Greatest Shave- Coca Cola Chicken & Pasta Bake
We held an office lunch and took part in the World’s Greatest Shave to raise money for the Leukaemia Foundation a couple of weeks back. It was a pot-luck lunch so everyone brought something along to share. A. marinated some chicken wings and drumettes which I helped him to bake in a slow oven with a couple of glugs of Coca Cola (yes, you read that right!). Mmmm,dish of the day! Just have a look at that picture – doesn’t it make you drool? I made a pasta-bake with a bolognese-type sauce that included peas and sweet corn, and buffalo mozarella melted through.
So, now A.’s hair is short - down to a 1 – and I think he looks great, as always! My hair got a colour – blue and glittery-silver vertical stripes.

Good on you for supporting a great cause. Coca Cola Chicken I have yet to try but I have heard that it’s very tasty. My mum used to marinate steaks in sprite and bbq them. From memory they were delicious too.
