She said something about engagement chicken, searched google and ended up here. Stuff tastes like crap. No way I'm asking her to marry me when she can't cook a decent meal.

When I saw the title of your post I laughed so hard I cried!

Engagement chicken is a superstition. It goes something like this: make the chicken recipe, have him eat it, he will propose. It's supposed to show the guy that you (the girl) cares enough to cook for him, and will make a good wife. Or something along those lines, anyway.

I've never made the chicken myself, as I think it does sound unappetizing. However, I would think that if repeatedly cooking a bad meal is enough to make you not want to marry her, you may have bigger issues than bad chicken.

When I first saw the title I thought it was hilarious. Now, not so much. It's actually sad. If you don't want to marry her because of something so stupid, you have bigger problems.

It's probably a joke, and the title is pretty funny. :D

We should probably stop encouraging the cooking of e-chicken, actually. It doesn't work, and let's face it, we sound crazy.

I had to laugh at this (sorry I'm a little new) Never knew it was called "engagement chicken" and in our 18 month relationship, I've screwed up a roast chicken twice!! I'm a pretty darn good cook, so this is kind of a running joke with us. He cringes every time I suggest it.

Glad you girls could take a joke, had to lighten it up a bit. She will be getting asked sometime soon, if Leon ever finishes this thing.

When I went to high school (Dodging the dinosaurs that still roamed the earth)
Home Economics was a required class. Maybe Engagement Button Sewing
would be a better "test".

HAHAHA! That reminds me.... my bf asked me to sew the buttons back to his shirt before. They were all falling out. :shock: Then, he said.. "how do you do it? you'll make a good wife." HAHAHA! :lol:

theclaw: I can't wait to see some pictures of the ring!!! :love:

Make no mistake
The ability to sew on a button is an in demand skill.
I was a private duty nurse in the homes of many young couples over
the past 16 years and I can't even begin to count the number of
buttons I have sewn on and young women (and men)I have taught.

Oh gosh. I don't eat meat, but SO does.. Actually he loves chicken. So when he was sick he asked for roasted chicken and rice. That was an awful adventure that began with asking the Sweetbay guy (probably 16) "uhhh I need to buy chicken?" "um okay?" The only thing I could think of saying: "I think I need the boobies?" Needless to say I'm never going back to that Sweetbay.

Congratulations : ) I can't wait to see your Leon!

Maybe it's called engagement chicken because it's suppose to teach communication.
