Winged Glories

So this last weekend I finally indulged my love of chicken wings by making 3 lbs of buffalo wings. Coated in an egg mixture, dipped into a flour mixture, and then deep fried, they came out beautifully golden and crispy. Add some hot sauce and blue cheese dip and Voila!

They were accompanied by a lettuce and avocado salad, a grasshopper pie and a three-layer lemon pie. I don't usually make so many desserts for one 'small' meal, but thank goodness I did this time. I didn't realize that the pistachio pudding mix for the grasshopper pie had bits of pistachios in it. My husband loves nuts. By themselves. Mix them with anything else and he complains that they get stuck in his teeth. Which means that I get the grasshopper pie all to myself. Oh well.
