Happy Labor Day

I know that there are some of you out there in internet-land that will "get" what I'm about to say, but anyway... I made hot wings and potato chips... not the kind you get in a bag, but actual potato chips, like the kind you can get at Wild Wings. Not only is everyone in my house full, they are happy and the grand total is $17.43. There was no sitting down and a waitress got our drink order, we did it all ourselves. And sometimes you need to do that, to know you can make something and it will be as good as if you would have paid someone or someplace else to do it for you.

Wings are probably one of the easiest things in the world to make, you cook them for about 15 minutes, you put some sauce on them, and you eat them. the potato chip are much the same. Fried enough to be crunchy and salted generously, topped with blue cheese they are making me hungry all over again. Finish off with some cut up celery and you have a bona-fide restaurant dinner... For a lot less money of course.

Just a little Labor Day reminder that we all work hard for our money, a little savings never hurt. Today we're cooking some crock-pot pulled pork, or Boston butt, while we go play in Charleston. Basically we put it in during the morning and it's ready for us when we come back in the evening.
