Wings.


I have always liked chicken wings but have never cooked them.  I will not eat them in any restaurants around here, they do not cook them right.  By right I mean we'll cooked crispy skins like they do in PA and NY.  And since I haven't been back home to PA in over 5 years now I've not had wings.   I suppose I never cooked them because Jerry did not care for them, he tought them disposable.  Made no sense to him why I liked chewing on them.  He would eat drumsticks though.  

So yesterday I bought some wings at the butcher counter and decided I would try to make some crispy buffala wigs ala PA or NY.  Today I did and I nailed it! I will do this again to treat me just as I did today.  They came out perfect, meat fell off the bones and the skins were crispy perfect, spicy hot.  I cooled things off with the traditional carrot and celery sticks and blue cheese dressing.  And since I like raw bell peppers and had one in the refrigerator I added some pepper slices too.  That was my dinner,  yum.  Oh and some left over potato salad.  That's another story, I don't know why I buy the stuff.  It is never the way I like it, always too sweet.  So from now on I'll just make my own or do without.

I had a feast for my dinner and will finish off with some ice cream later.  Our weather turned chilly this week, just like that the summer heat is done.  Finally the other day I gave up my shorts and t tank top and sandals for jeans, a sweatshirt and tennies or skechers slip ons.  It sure seems early to have it this ool. Also switched from the central a/cto heat.  Haven't had to use much heat though as I have it set at 72 degrees and so far the house doesn;t cool below that.  Except yesterday late evening it did kick on a little.  

Today I changedclothes several times from my acrylic long sleeve top and jeans to shorts when I worked down in the lower garden trimming back some ferns, plenty more to go.   I got warm out there in the sun.  Then when I came in the house I slipped into sandals and finally put my jeans back on.  By late afternoon, going to evening at 6:00pm I was back in my sweatshirt too. The sky is varied but it looks decent, though dry.  We could use some rain.   I've had to water some.  Seems not right here in September but then that's the way it is.
