Kams' gems:

The music came on at the end of the dragon movie, and Kams turned around and announced that "the music makes my feet bounce!"

She has always responded to music since she was an infant. Music would come on and she would start wiggling her head back and forth to the sound. She had no idea what she was doing, but she had no control over it. LOL

These are SO easy to make and taste like they come straight from a restaurant!

Ingredients

• 1 large onion, cut into ¼ inch slices
• 1¼ cups flour
• 1 tsp. baking powder
• 1 tsp. salt

• salt for seasoning

Instructions

1. Heat oil to 350 degrees F.
2. Separate the ¼ inch slices of onion into separate rings.
3. In a small bowl, combine flour, baking powder and salt. Coat onion rings in the dry mixture completely and set aside.
4. In a medium bowl, combine egg and milk and whisk until completely combined.
5. Dip the flour-coated onion rings into egg-milk mixture and place on a wire rack to let excess egg-milk mixture drain.
6. While onion rings drain, pour Panko bread crumbs into a shallow dish. Dip egg-milk coated onion rings into Panko bread crumbs until completely coated. Spoon crumbs over the top to cover as necessary.
7. Place in hot oil and cook 1 to 1½ minutes on each side until it reaches a nice golden brown color. Flip them over to cook the other side.
