Of all the flightless birds, chickens remain America’s favorite kind to eat, narrowly beating out penguins, kiwis, and Larry Bird. Make bird the word with today's Groupon: for $5, you get $10 worth of healthy comfort fare at Austin Grilled Chicken in Baldwin.
At Austin Grilled Chicken, chefs marinate tender meat for 48 hours in herbs and spices before serving the homestyle chicken alongside healthy, made-from-scratch sides. Along with enough rich poultry to make house cats admit they are powerless, the menu boasts mashed potatoes ($2.49/half-pound order), coleslaw ($2.49/half-pound), and corn on the cob ($1.49). Combo meals include the quarter chicken plate that's decked with light or dark arrangements, a choice of side, and pita bread ($4.49–$4.99). Veggie-clad options such as protein-packed chicken pot pies ($4.99 each) instill eaters with such uncanny poultry powers they suddenly have the ability to play "Wipe Out" with two drumsticks and a kitchen counter.

The Groupon Guide to: Houseguests
Houseguests can be old friends, in-laws, or wandering strangers who hate personal space. Here's a guide to handling houseguests:
• Clean Up: No one wants to visit a dirty home, so be sure to clean up any dust, broken glass, or nude wall art that may have collected.
• Put Out Fresh Linens: Human skin cannot be exposed to any linens with a thread count of less than 600. If you don't have 600-count sheets, make them by layering three 200-thread-count sheets and stapling them together.
• Entertain Them: Houseguests love games, but never challenge them to a game of charades. They are masters of deception who can shape-shift into any movie, book, or Tom Hanks, and after they win, they will insist on giving your spouse a lingering victory hug.
• Make Them Comfortable: Though a houseguest's main duty is to make you uncomfortable by hiding in the bathroom until you accidentally walk in on them, you still must make them feel comfortable. Cover the floors of your home with mattresses to make them feel as comfortable as they'd be if they were in their own home or walking on their own government-sanctioned mattresses.
• Feed Them: When left to fend for themselves in the kitchen, houseguests will only feel comfortable eating the cardboard box that surrounds cereal. Let them know that they can eat anything they want as long as they promise to not ingest any of your kitchen's powerful and expensive smells.
