So, I decided it was worth it to make him a simple Sunday evening dinner:
Appetizer: Duo of bleu
Main Course: Roasted whole chicken
Sides: Mashed potatoes and Caesar salad
Dessert: Root beer floats
We both love bleu cheese, so i decided to compare a Danish Bleu (left) to a Stilton (right). With crackers, we liked the Stilton, but the Danish Bleu would be delicious spread on a baguette!
Don't mess with a classic- Ina Garten's perfect roast chicken (which I finally learned how to carve properly)!
With my mother's version of mashed potatoes.... well, maybe not as much butter as she prefers.
A simple Caesar salad rounded out the meal, with homemade croutons.
It's hard to take a good picture of a root beer float, but it was perfection with Gifford's vanilla... and the perfect drink for watching Mad Men!
We didn't look our best Sunday night, so I just thought I'd throw in a pic from our time in San Francisco with Mary a few weeks ago!
