Sounds easy. And it’s only 1 hour! 6:15 pm I start cooking since Mr. Sauce, Esq. wanted dinner after 7.

ItContinue reading 169. Chicken ‘N Rice Skillet
Before I get to 179. Chicken Marengo, I need to tell you about my new daily routine. It’s a life-changer. It’s called: I’ll Tell You How I’m Sleeping–Not Well Bitch! This is how it works: Phase I Fall asleep (typically with the lights and tv on and still wearing glasses) Have significant other wake youContinue reading 179. Chicken Marengo
I don’t know if the retrospective inspired me, but I am newly committed to tackling the blog backlog. There are currently ten dishes in the queue–some were cooked last week, others apparently more than two years ago. True story. I made this in November 2018. I honest to god thought I had posted this one.Continue reading 198. Chicken Fricassee and Dumplings
A fact about me: I keep a very detailed planner. Like, not just a what-to-do planner but a what-I-already-did planner. I will go back a day and fill in what may have happened that wasn’t already on the calendar. I keep a very detailed planner because I want to know where I was on anyContinue reading 133. Chicken Linguini
Has anyone else been taking the time that would typically be spent going out to dinner or shopping or seeing friends to watch really weird movies? No? Just me? I’ve actually been watching a lot of MST3K and RiffTrax (which is literally the same thing except RiffTrax doesn’t have space, robots, skits, or commercial breaks).Continue reading 200. Crunchy Baked Chicken
(Before I start let me just say that the formatting here is a hot mess and I can’t seem to fix it. I mean, it’s really messed up. If there is a missing picture in the middle, it may or may not be at the bottom of the post) My friends over at the BookClubContinue reading More Cowbell! Chicken Vindaloo
Do you ever have a OMG I need to eat that craving but then realize that you don’t have the money to go out to dinner so you gotta do it yourself? Well, that was me with this Marsala dish. Big craving and I already had chicken and mushrooms on hand. So I had theContinue reading Veal (Chicken) alla Marsala (1978)
Happy spring! I have another Dinner is Served dinner! I chose No. 184 because Mr. Sauce had a couple of his friends over for dinner. When he invites his friends over, I tend to make “safer” dinners. I’ll make my friends eat kidneys and milk chicken, but I don’t want to do that to hisContinue reading 184. Wine-Glazed Cornish Hens

Beef Wellington
Hello! My friends, how I’ve missed you! I’ve never neglected the blog for so many weeks at a time (I’m not going to count the last post). Right now I’ll just blame my neglect on the fact that I have been busy moving Mr. Sauce into my apartment. And I don’t remember much about 172,Continue reading 172. Chicken Breasts, French Style
I think it was established long ago that I am a horrible person. Or if not a horrible person, at least someone who deserves a Jerry Seinfeld Award in Dating Excellence. Because I am still out there. Dating. And doing it in such a dismissively superficial manner. But does that make me a horrible person? GentleContinue reading 119. Chicken a la King (Happy 6th Anniversary!)

Hello, kittens! Today I’m sharing with you a DiS card that I made–well, I don’t know how long ago it was! Here is an action shot of Rick grilling the chicken: The grass is green and we’re grilling, sooooo, it was over the summer. THE SUMMER!!!! I don’t remember much about this dinner (although I didContinue reading 89. Barbecued Chicken (With Plum Baste)
You know this card. It has been passed around the internet again and again and again. It inevitably ends up on lists of bad retro foods. And rightfully so! Look at that gravy–it’s like someone poured a vat of plaster on those chickens and then garnished it with banana slices. Yes. Those are banana slices. This piece of artContinue reading I Made Milk Chicken So You Don’t Have To
So, you know that weekend that Todd and Leah came in for a wedding and I made them the Broiled Filet of Sole brunch on Saturday morning? Well, this is how insane I am: while they were at that wedding on Saturday night I was cooking at the house because on Sunday night I hostedContinue reading 82. Chicken Breasts (With Prosciutto and Mushrooms)
Happy Autumn! The Equinox has come and gone and we are enjoying some very fall-like weather here in Maryland. There is a definite chill in the air, as well as lots of rain. It’s an absolutely perfect time for comfort food. And I think that casseroles, particularly chicken casseroles, are extra comfy. This Yorkshire Chicken recipe comesContinue reading Yorkshire Chicken
I am chicken. Well, I made chicken, yes. Specifically this dinner, 34. Herb Broiled Chicken. But I am chicken, as well. Lemme explain. It was about this time last year I was dating Mr. Buckeye. Do you remember Mr. Buckeye? He was the meatball guy. From that BH&G Cooking for Two, there was the DoubleContinue reading 34. Herb Broiled Chicken
So this month I participated in the Food Blogger Cookbook Swap, hosted by Alyssa of www.EverydayMaven.com and Faith of http://www.anediblemosaic.com . The format is much like when I’ve done Foodie Pen Pals. But instead of filling a box with foodstuffs, I sent a cookbook to a food blogger and received one in return. I received from (the very educational and veryContinue reading Food Blogger Cookbook Swap
