Home Cooking: Terry's Birthday Dinner
Terry's birthday was a week or so ago, but instead of going out, he wanted me to make him dinner. We trolled Findlay Market for fresh veggies, and ended up with a mishmash of his favorite foods. I got some Amish chicken from Luken's (whose $5 for 5 pounds of chicken leg-and-thigh quarters can't be beat; Terry likes dark meat anyway), some fresh corn, zucchini and tomatoes and I threw together a salad. Very simple, but tasty-- it tasted like summer.

That looks yummy! I almost sent you a message the other day...eggplants are $1 at Biggs. I bought one and roasted it like I do all veggies and it turned out great! Any other suggestions? We need a local forum I guess! Sorry to go off on a tangent.

The Irishman and I had this as our wedding cake, too! We order one on our anniversary every year.
Ridiculously good!
