Extra Crispy Fried Chicken
Corn Bread (that I am addicted to)
Waldorf Salad (I'm as surprised as you!)

Chicken put in buttermilk last night, then into egg, into paper bag w/flour/cornstarch/seasonings...fried. I used my small Griswold cast iron pan, so this took forever. Chicken was finished off in the oven.
Corn bread is now made here just about every other week. Sauteed broccoli, shallot, garlic and fresh corn if I have it, a handful of shredded sharp cheese (Mexican blend does well in this), a few good dashes of cayenne to the mix, let it sit for a bit before baking. If the batter is too thick, rather than add more milk, I like to add a dollop of yogurt.
The first time I did all this, I made the corn bread from scratch, the batter poured right on top of sauteed vegies in cast iron pan. It TOO was delicious, but I badly burned myself and had more than I could eat in a week.
I broke down and tried the tiny box of mix. You still have to add ingredients, but it's a tad faster, just as delicious, moist and warms up again nicely.
A note on the salad...while frying the chicken, I started thinking about my work lunch. I have enough chicken to take a piece...a perfect opportunity to enjoy cold chicken, perhaps and wanting something cold, really fresh and good,, this came to mind. Apples/celery/walnuts/mayo...may still add chopped dates (try it). ...what a smattering of textures!
