On Sunday we not only celebrated with another party for Dylan, but it was the return on Chickenversary ( a term James has coined). You see I only make friend chicken once a year, and it is usually on Father’s Day. This time around though, both sides of the family were  going to be  in town, so I needed to feed everyone. I stocked up on supplies at the store, but then right before the party, I found out that my brother wasn’t going to make it, and then my mother in law and sister in law weren’t able to come to dinner either. I decided that Chickenversary must go on. James was happy about that one.

If you take a look at this picture, you’ll see why Chickenversary is just once a year. It is messy business, but tasty business too.

The tenders were really tasty, and maybe this will get me to put fried chicken on the menu more often.

I made a double batch of Fried Chicken Tenders, a big batch of Biscuits, some Mashed Potatoes, a Cherry Pie for dessert, and a couple gallons of Sweet Tea too. My mom was able to stay for dinner, so that was pretty cool. The kiddos loved the meal too, so it was all worth the mess. I’ll still probably make Fried Chicken for James on Father’s Day, but don’t tell him, Chickenversary is supposed to only happen once a year.
