I figured out that there are
315 calories per serving, if 4 oz. boneless, skinless breasts are used. (Please note that the calorie counts vary
depending on the specific brands of ingredients that you choose to use.)
I used to love fried
chicken. At all picnics we served
Colonel Sander’s or Brown’s Fried Chicken. Once I started dieting in my
twenties, I stopped eating fried chicken and began eating baked. This fried
chicken was very good. Unfortunately for me, my system cannot handle fried food
anymore. I knew this going in to cooking this recipe, but I vowed to try every
recipe and I meant it. This was so delicious and crispy. If I could eat fried
food, this one would definitely be on my list. Kids would love this chicken because of the crunch!
Trivial Triffles
On
my many trips to Sandwich, I drove by this house and actually had to pull over
and take a closer look. Lined up
in front of the house was a row of sleds. They were spaced out and leaning
across the front brick.
I
loved them because they were type of wooden sleds that I grew up using. They
gave me such joy to see them. I
actually pulled in the driveway to take a picture, braving the Beware of Dog
sign. This was a true blast from the past.
Memory Musings
As
I was on one of my many trips to the Sandwich Vet, I decided to take a
different route. This time I decided to drive straight down Rt. 47 going south.
I came upon a house that brought back a happy memory. This house, on the left side of the road, has a home with a
large pond on the property. The best part was that the pond usually had a
beautiful swan enjoying the water and bank. As a child, I loved the idea of
having your own pond but the added bonus was the swan. It was almost fairytale
like for me. Sometimes I love driving different routes because it brings a
moment of great happiness.
