There are two kinds of people in the world. People who can make pie dough, and people who can make biscuits. I don’t really understand this, since in theory biscuits and pie dough require the same skill set, but experience suggests that if you can make one, you can’t make the other. I make excellent biscuits and lousy pie dough.
It was another Birthday Dinner this week, and Miss A requested macaroni & cheese.
Menu
Macaroni & Cheese
Cold Roasted Chicken
Sliced Tomatoes
Salad
Sangria that was left over from the party on Sunday
Berries that remained after the Sangria was finished served over ice cream for dessert
(I highly highly recommend saving the berries and retasking them for dessert when the Sangria is gone)
When I was little the rule was you could ask for whatever you wanted for your birthday dinner within reason. Translated, this meant that while my father did not get wild boar in port sauce, I did get fried chicken every year for my birthday. I still only make fried chicken about once year. It’s not because I think it’s necessarily terrible for you, or even because it’s that hard to make. Mostly it’s just because it’s messy and I hate cleaning up afterwards.
That being said, there are days when you just crave fried chicken and this Sunday when I was making the weekly grocery shopping list was one of them.
So Dinner this week was:
Fried Chicken
Sliced tomatoes (beautiful striped heirloom tomatoes)
Melon
Cole Slaw
Corn
