CHICKEN LEG
at a time

Growing up, meat was the focal point of all meal preparation.  Everything revolved around how long the meatloaf, turkey, fried chicken etc. had to cook.  Every plate had to be picture perfect–1/2 meat (it is the South afterall), 1/4 starch (usually potatoes), 1/4 vegetable (often fried). As an adult, my meals still have a singular focus, but now that focus is ease of preparation, ha.  This next Call for Entries is singular in focus as well.  Be sure to check this out…

I miss seafood.  I love my husband dearly, but his adult-onset allergy to shellfish has really put a crimp in our food lifestyle.  Amongst my favorites are mussels steamed in white wine and Maryland blue crabs.  Aside from the adults having gorgeous blue claws, they are delightfully yummy.  Crack one for me at the opening of the show resulting from this next Call.
