Dinner was a plate of random: Oven-roasted black pepper and garlic potato slices with… A butterflied and pounded and lightly breaded and pan “fried” chicken breast with… Cucumbers in tzatziki sauce. Redundant? Yes. Delicious? Also yes. Why the random dinner? Well, it’s Adam’s birthday tomorrow, and I have a project to complete… You all know [...]
