He'll try anything,
even making the lattice crusts for my chicken pies.
Obviously, neither of us has ever watched a tutorial
on weaving a proper lattice crust.
But the chicken cookie in the middle was darn cute.
And we didn't get any complaints from our guests.
I kept it simple.
Homemade chicken pies,
cranberry sauce,
a cucumber-radish platter.
And a simple dessert,
brownie mix with Symphony bars baked
in the middle,
vanilla ice cream on top.
Forgot to get a picture of them but here's the recipe.
No fancy table either
but both leaves put in the table
so all 11 of us could sit around it.
I did use my wedding silver though.
I put lots of my good silver in the kitchen drawer
recently, determined to use it regularly.
If not now, when?
If RH can weave a pastry crust,
then I can learn to do simple,
with a touch of sterling added.
Sometimes marriage is learning to work together in
the kitchen and have fun doing it,
because we're keeping it simple.
