This means I’m always looking for new and interesting ways to cook them, since I’ve fried so many chicken legs in my life, I could fuel Airforce One for a year with the leftover oil. Plus, although fried chicken is delicious, I get a little tired of it.

Honey Sesame Chicken. Somehow I have gotten on this Asian kick lately and I'm loving every bit of it. I am finding out just how easy making these meals are and they all are so yummy!

The apple cake, it’s some good stuff. Not above pilfering content for my website from my nearest and dearest, I talked my mom into coming over (and heaving up all 51 stairs–she likes to count them) on Sunday to bake the cake with me for the New Years dinner at my in-laws today.

To Amy: Removing to foil is simply a way to keep the steaks warm whilst resting (FOR 5 MINUTES AT LEAST… ALWAYYYS!). When the OP says remove to foil, he/she doesn’t mean to wrap them tightly.
