A whole chicken? Try something with a Mexican flare perhaps. Salt, black pepper, garlic, cumin, lemon, lime. Stuff with spinach, onioin, garlic, assorted bell peppers, mushrooms, cream cheese, and shredded cheese (cheddar, Monterey Jack, etc). Cook and when the skin begins to crisp, pour on your favorite salsa and allow to cook into the skin.

Scoop out the stuffing and serve alongside the chicken with warm tortillas, black beans topped with cotija cheese (feta or goat cheese also works), and fresh salsa (diced tomato, dice onion, diced cilantro, lime juice, salt, pepper).

If you've never done beer can chicken that's a good ol standby - you can do it in the oven or the grill

Also as chuck already sort of suggested above - you could do a mojo flavor. They sell mojo marinades or you can just google the ingredients and make your own - it's usually just a combo of citrus juice, garlic and oregano.

I need a fuking wife like @chuckcem

would you marry a chick who doesn't cook chuck?

Took me a second to understand what you were saying. I immediately thought, "I would make a TERRIBLE wife....oh OOOOOOH..."

Here are my thoughts on ladies who do/do not cook. I'm looking for a woman who brings just as much to the table as I do. If she cooks, that's great because we can trade off. If she enjoys cooking, even better because that's a shared interest.

If she doesn't cook or hates cooking, then there needs to be a trade off of some kind. For example I love cooking, but I'm not a fan of cleaning. I do it because I have to and need to keep my space tidy, but I don't necessarily enjoy the process of cleaning. So if she's cool with handling one thing, while I handle the other, I'm all about finding that equilibrium.

So to sum up if a woman tells me she loves cooking, great! If a woman says she hates cooking, but loves cleaning, great! There just needs to be a fair trade in my mind (Libra Venus btw).

Yes and no. Libra in Venus is in it's domicile. Libra in Mars is in detriment (since Libra is opposite to Aries and Aries is ruled by Mars). Basically Libra Venus is all about fairness and equality in love. It's a gentle and charming placement, which gives the person a certain sensitivity to beauty and a quick mind for conversation. Libra energy understands social grace and decorum, so this can become easily expressed with Libra in Venus.

Libra Mars is a bit different since Mars is more agressive than Venus. Mars focuses more on action, drive, and pursuit. Since Libra energy is known to be focused on fairness and prone to indecision, this can be give a person a more passive quality to how they pursue their goals. Libra energy tends to revolve around the give and take, so a Libra Mars may be more prone to oscillate between decision and action which could become frustrating.

Well i kind of agree/disagree with what you said.

You're right when you mention the " passive " quality in general, but in relationship ( since we are talking about marrying someone ) not really. There will be no " give and take " i will give without hoping something in return and absolutely not oscillate between decision and action because the principle is simple :

Let's say i'm with a man that wants to marry me, so my decision will be very clear since the begining : to make him absolutely happy, so my action will be : to do anything that could to make him happy

There will be not oscillation, no indecision etc

Maybe it can be true in the beginning of the relationship for some people with this placement, i don't know, but when it's question of marriage i don't think so it's a serious matter after all

And also, I think that in certain situation the Libra will be more pleasing than indecisive or passive, but it depends on the person

Very interesting and that makes sense too. Once Libra energy is set on an idea it can become laser focused on it's goal. It maeks sense that the energy would play out differently in different people, possibly even as a pleasing aspect.
