For the past couple of weeks at work I’ve been talking with a co-worker who has mentioned Wright’s Chicken Farm and the Wright’s Farm Restaurant. We hadn’t had anything planned for dinner tonight so when Allison asked what we should do I suggested that we take the kids there for dinner. Chicken, Salad, Pasta and Sauce plus Fried served Family style seemed like a very kid friendly menu.
We had been hearing about this place for years and I don’t recall ever going. I know that Allison and I have never gone and so we tried it. The food was okay. I certainly enjoyed it. The kids loved the rolls and when Andrew finally got going he liked the chicken and wanted more of it, but by that time it was gone. I put up the photo on Facebook and a bunch of people told us about another place that does the whole Chicken family style as well. They say it is better. Who knows, we may have to go on another excursion in a couple of months.
Have you ever seen something on Facebook that someone made and figure that you could follow those easy steps and do it yourself? I saw a video of someone who made brownie bowls by placing a cupcake pan on top of another cupcake pan. So, I tried it. I greased the pans like crazy and they should have come apart with no problem but there were tons of problems. First of all, I must have put too much batter in the cupcake tin. The batter overflowed and dripped onto the bottom of the oven. I scooped it out with the grilling spatula but knocked some underneath and it caught fire. I shut off the oven so it would burn out and then started it back up. When the brownies were finished I figured I’d let them cool a bit before separating them. That was a mistake because I waited too long and while they would pop out of the bottom cupcake tray they would not come off the bottom of the top tray. I managed to mangle them all and we ate the crumbs with our ice cream. It still tasted good, but I would have liked to have gotten this right.
