Directions:
Take John Boat, fishing pole & felt.
Go to local pond (a clean one).
Put felt on hook attached to fishing line on fishing pole.
Dangle felt in front of large bull frogs (you need to catch about 20) then cut their legs off.
Throw their body's back in the pond (dad said they would grow their legs back because they're amphibians, but I don't believe it.)

OK (back @ home)
Cut feet off & pull skin off the frog legs and rinse, then place in bowl with about 2 cups of milk and put aside.
Place all dry ingredients in large bowl and mix.
Put the eggs in a separate bowl & beat.
Put oil in a pan, electric frying pan, or fry-o-later heat to 350º.

Tastes like chicken so if your "chicken of frogs", substitute with chicken wing drumettes. (no one will know the difference).
