Super Bowl Fry-off
Last Thanksgiving, we bought a giant deep frier to fry a turkey, which came out fabulous. We decided to have a big super bowl party and fry up some chicken. When we went to Vons they were out of whole chickens, so we decided to get creative. We bought 14 Cornish Game Hens, 2 ducks and a goose, with the intention of frying all of them. After some initial problems with our 10 gallon deep fryer, we got all the hens fried up. Later that night we fried up a duck. We still have 2 ducks to fry up tonight. We had a vegetable platter, a cheese and cracker platter, guacamole, and plenty to drink. It was a fantastic time with lots of good friends. I'm almost ashamed to admit it was the first superbowl I'd ever watched. I'm lucky it was such a good one. A lot of the people there were saying it was the best superbowl they'd ever seen.We closed escrow on the new place today, so this party was also a sort of farewell bash as Sarah and I will begin moving in in a week or so.
Its snowing pretty hard outside and I have to get Obigabu to the airport in Reno tonight. Its been great having him visit and I'll have lots to ruminate about in the next day or so. We're hoping the roads to Reno aren't that bad right now.
