One of the highlights of visiting a grandparent in Florida is the Sunday night buffet. How often do you get salad, fried chicken, cornbread, mashed potatoes, steak, shrimp, carrots, broccoli, pot roast, and a brownie fudge sundae all in the same meal? I was actually pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food at the golden corral. A lot of the meats we freshly carved, and the place was so packed that nothing sat around for very long.
Tonight, due to an onion that got lost on the way home from the store, I had to do some improvising. The original plan was chicken stroganoff, so I had chicken, mushrooms, sour cream as my base. I ended up going with a curry sauce and added some diced potatoes. It was a touch too spicy, but that is a mistake easily forgiven in this household. I should improvise more often, it was actually pretty fun once I got over being annoyed about the missing onion.
We got some mini halloween themed cupcakes to go with dinner tonight. there is something awesome about being able to eat a whole cupcake in one bite.
My cell phone finally died, so I had to get a new one. I ended up with the Mogul by HTC. It's pretty sweet and I can now blog right from the phone. Here's a picture of our dog as a test.
