And why not? Chicken is much less expensive than beef or pork, and useful down to the bones. Don’t pay full price. Chicken is always on sale somewhere. If you don’t want to store hop, you can always find some cut of meat, fish and poultry on sale in your favorite market. Eat what’s on sale, and if it’s a loss leader (that means priced dirt-cheap to entice people through the door), stock up for the coming weeks. Buy whole chickens. The most frugal way to use chickens is to buy them whole and cut them up yourself. You’ll not only save money, but chicken tastes much better when cooked with the skin and bones. A whole, organic bird usually costs less per pound than precut, skinned and boned parts – and it tastes so much better. It is not difficult to cut up a chicken once you understand the five simple steps. Here is a video tutorial (www.allrecipes. com/video/2/how-tocut-up-a-whole-chicken/ detail.aspx), or, if you prefer, written instructions (www. allrecipes.com/howto/ cutting-up-a-wholechicken/) with pictures. Three-way chicken. Whether you buy a whole raw chicken or a rotisserie chicken from the deli counter, you are looking at three meals from that one bird. Dinner No. 1: Roast chicken (more to come on this in a bit). Dinner No. 2: Chicken pot pie, chicken sandwiches, chicken stir-fry, chicken burritos or chicken salad using the meat you removed from the carcass following Dinner No. 1. Dinner No. 3: Chicken soup made from the carcass of the bird. Roast whole chicken. Preheat oven to 450 degrees. In the meantime, remove everything from the cavity and rinse it inside and out. Dry with paper towels or clean cloth. Season well with salt and pepper. Place half a stalk of celery and half of a whole onion inside the cavity. Set the chicken breast-side-up in a baking dish or roasting pan. Put the chicken into the oven and reduce to 400 degrees. Set a time for one hour and do not open the oven door. After an hour, check if the chicken is done by inserting an instantread thermometer in the thickest part of its thigh. The internal temperature should be at least 165 degrees for the chicken to be done. If you’re under, put it back in to cook for another 5 to 10 minutes and check it again. Let the bird rest for about 15 minutes. Carve and enjoy. Storing fresh chicken. Fresh chicken should be used within two days or frozen for up to nine months. How to freeze: Freezing chicken in the original packaging is fine for up to two months. For longer freezing, over-wrap packages with foil, plastic wrap, freezer paper or plastic bags. For ease in defrosting, you may prefer to separate and wrap individual pieces or servings prior to freezing, so you only have to thaw the quantity you need for the meal you’re preparing. How to thaw: Never thaw poultry at room temperature! The safest method is in the refrigerator. Allow approximately five hours per pound thawing time. For faster thawing, you can defrost using the cold-water method, by putting poultry in an airtight bag and placing it in a bowl or sink full of cold water and changing the water every half hour. And never use hot water, since it can stimulate bacterial growth. mary@everydaycheapskate.com|Everyday Cheapskate, Box 2135 Paramount, CA 90723. 8 ( WSEC ATT CHANNELS 37 A&E 32 AMC 46 ANPL 29 BET 39 CNBC 26 CNN 45 COM 43 DISN 31 DSC 27 ESPN 59 FAM 50 FNC 48 FOOD 56 FSMW 54 FX 57 HGTV 51 HALL 20 ION 42 LIFE 40 MSNBC 25 NICK 33 SPIKE 67 SYFY 38 TBS 52 TLC 34 TNT 63 TRUTV 30 USA 24 VH1 9 WGN-A 6:00 www.herald-review.com DECATUR, ILLINOIS 6:30 7:00 7:30 8:00 8:30 9:00 9:30 3 News at Six Paid Program Bad Teacher Bad Teacher Criminal Minds “Rabid” ’ 48 Hours (N) ’ (DVS) (N) “Yearbook” (N) ’ The Lawrence Welk Show Antiques Roadshow Albert As Time Goes The Café To the Manor After You’ve “Big Band Memories” Cheuret art deco clocks. ’ By Born Gone ’ WAND News Wheel of For- Dateline NBC (N) ’ The Blacklist Liz helps Tom at 6 (N) tune ’ adjust to the adoption. ’ Newschannel Entertainment Bet on Your Baby (N) ’ Mistresses Disconcerting Nightline Prime (N) ’ Early News Tonight news about Daniel.

Worried that he may hurt himself, I pick him up and comfort him. I know that reinforces head-banging, but I don’t know what else to do. Making matters worse, a school counselor friend of mine tells me that headbanging is something lots of autistic kids do. I’m at a loss. A: First, your friend needs to stick to doing what she was trained to do. When someone attempts to operate beyond the limits imposed by their training, they generally make a mess of things. For example, a very good school counselor who tries to be a psychologist or medical doctor is likely to spread misinformation and create confusion. In that regard, I am not aware of any list of autism symptoms that includes head banging. Autism is primarily defined by problems with communication and social interaction. While it’s probably true that some autistic kids bang their heads when they are upset, so do many non-autistic kids. Likewise, tantrums are one symptom of childhood bipolar disorder, but almost all toddlers throw tantrums and very few later found to be bipolar. Some kids with very low IQs, when they throw tantrums, bang their heads, but some toddlers with normal IQs also engage in head-banging when they’re upset. In other words, one symptom does not make a diagnosis. In and of itself, head-banging is not a symptom of pathology. Yes, you are reinforcing your son’s head-banging by picking him up and comforting him, but doing so is certainly understandable. The fact, however, is that an otherwise normal toddler head-banger rarely causes himself more than bruising to the forehead, something a little makeup will conceal. During early childhood, the JOHN ROSEMOND Living with Children skull is fairly plastic, which is why most toddlers survive this oft-tumultuous developmental phase and grow up to be fully functional non-headbanging adults. Ignoring your son when he bangs his head is one option, but ignoring a problem behavior can and often does activate the “things get worse before they get better” principle. Can you handle it if his head-banging gets temporarily worse? If the answer to that question is no, then you are a completely normal mother. In that case, go to a discount store and buy a colorful throw rug. One printed with Looney Tunes characters would be highly appropriate. Place it on top of an already carpeted area and tell your son that it’s his new, very special head-banging place. From that point on, whenever he begins to bang his head during a childhood bipolar episode, pick him up, take him to his new and very special head-banging rug, put him gently down and say, “You can bang your head here.” Then walk away. Do this as often as necessary, which may be fairly often for a few days. If you’re calm and consistent, and if my experience serves me well, his head banging will soon be a thing of the past. Next comes foot-stomping, which is far less worrisome.
