The kids got me wooden knitting needles for Christmas. (one from each kid. ??)
I am in knitter's heaven. If I'd known how nice they felt to use I'd have gotten pairs years ago. Now I have to go spend a fortune to replace all my craptacular acrylic and aluminum ones with gorgeous wooden ones.

It's kind of relaxing- I wouldn't go so far as to say "fun" but I like it. You can do it while watching TV...
My wife knits constantly and I'm always amazed at how few projects she finishes.

I worked in a heavily rural grocery store when I was a teenager and the old people in the country would buy the chicken heads and feet if we packaged them in trays.

I know that they used the feet for stews, but I don't know what they used the heads for. The entire summer of my 16th year was spent cutting up chickens to increase gross profit. They came in plucked and gutted, and I got to do the rest.

well, not broth exactly, since that implies that you're adding something to it later. there's a lot of very nutritious stuff in there - the brain, the tongue, the bone marrow, and the combs. so, they probably cooked them down and then ate them as part of the soup. certainly plenty of people just eat the feet, whether they're in a stew or not. after a certain point, you can't really afford to not eat certain parts of animals.
