MORE BIRHTDAY CELEBRATION

Since it does not get dark till 9:00 p.m. and papa gets home just a smidgen after 7:00 p.m., mama decided that she and Mimi would have a snack before papa was to get home and mama made a special birthday dinner. Normally we would have our dinner earlier then head for the park.

Mama tried out a new recipe that was given to her by one of her BFF Sandra. The recipe is for chicken breast however since we like the dark meat, it works well with that too. The recipe calls for 1 part oyster sauce and 2 parts red vinegar. Marinate the meat for at least 2 hours then bake, broil or BBQ. We chose BBQ since we like eating outdoors a lot now this time of year. Let me tell you, the chicken was SLAM'IN!!! Oh mama!!! Was it good! Together with the chicken, mama made her favorite garlic mash potatoes and steamed broccoli with a smidgen of mayo.

During dinner, Mimi tells papa "Since I have a big, big, big mouth, I can't tell you what your birthday present is, you have to wait till tomorrow, sorry". So will everyone else.
