Cracker Barrel

Steve dragged me to a tea party the other day.  I won’t say anything about it except that I made us leave after a short time.  And I had a really good hot pretzel there with sabrett mustard.  I had already picked up some ground chuck from our local little market (Red Mills market) for [...]

Oven-Fried Chicken Fingers

Weight Watchers Chicken Parmesan
