I was whipped from the day before - the morning started with a 250 mile
drive to Union Station in LA then off to Redondo Beach for an hour or 2 then
off to Montrose - Tax Appointment over. Drive to Santa Clarita then back
home another 250 miles. By the time Easter Sunday arrived I was no mood for
a large dinner.
Simple fare - I roasted a nice chicken on a rack - A 3 hour soak in salt &
brown sugar. A Q rub sprinkled all over and bake @ 350 till done. Same oven
a mélange of Potato Carrot & Onion chunks tossed with garlic, EVOO &
Balsamic Tossed several time while cooking. A bit of Salad - a Scotch
before dinner and some wine with followed by some Pineapple upside down
cake.
