March 2, 2010 nothing beats fried chicken and waffles! My love for fried chicken, much like my love for noodles, is not very discerning.

Chang’s Fried Chicken in Octo Vinaigrette is pretty damn tasty, but one fried chicken recipe in the whole book just leaves me wanting more.

Just anticipating the reactions — “apple and cheddar?!”

I mean it. Easy. E…..Z…. Peach Crunch Cake. You need some sliced peaches in syrup.My husband is happy because I cook more at home.

Between that and taking care of two little ones, I just didn’t have energy to cook anymore. So we ate out quite a bit. And that’s not good for health.
