Oh and this fried chicken is delightful! The most amazing blend of seasoned breading, and perfect chicken. If there is a better homemade fried chicken recipe out there; then I dare you to find it!

“Hug Time!”

I was recently walking through a grocery store with my two-year-old. As we walked, I was feeling the weight of my world on my shoulders. Life has been hard for three years and I am more than ready to close this ugly chapter and start a new one. Emotional exhaustion, anger, and sadness have been my constant companions for some time now and it really must be said; they are horrid companions!

Anyway,  as we walked through the store I started to cry. I’d like to say it was a hormonal moment or the result of no sleep the night before (both of which are highly possible); however, I believe with how often this kind of thing happens, it’s just a part of me and my life.

My two year old looked up at my tears, then said “Hug Time!”

She’s so great!

Yellow roses and beautiful skirts are two of the best things ever!

“Hey thanks for being you!”

After my delightful hugs I was given a second moment of delight; Kezia pointed at the flower displays and shouted,

“Momma need flowers!”

After pausing for a moment, I decided that yes, yes Momma did need flowers.

Chicken and waffles rock this world!

I let her pick which flowers we bought and she chose these yellow roses. Then we came home and I looked up the symbolism of yellow roses…

When it comes to sending a joyful message, yellow roses are your best friend. In fact, yellow roses are a traditional symbol of friendship, so there you go. With their warm, sunny disposition, a bouquet of yellow roses tends to light up the room, making them a perfect way to say  “Hey, thanks for being you.”

These yellow flowers were, and are, a comfort to my soul. Yellow roses are the Fried Chicken and Waffles of the flower world!

Roscoe’s

Years ago I was in Los Angeles, California. I was taking my husband to an airport so he could fly across country for an interview and then more.

Before dropping him at the airport we spent the day playing in Los Angeles. I will always remember that day. For some odd reason, it felt like I was saying goodbye forever and I drank in every moment. I knew it wasn’t logical and I wasn’t hysterical or anything; I don’t know why I was feeling that way and while there was reason for the feeling, I didn’t learn that reason for a good 5 more years. Haha!

Either way though, the day is still strong in my memory… I was wearing new mustard yellow ballet-flats shoes, with a cute tunic top, tight blue jeans and then  had done my hair in beach waves; I felt more than a little cute all day.

We visited a park with big trees, a beautiful brook, and a fun playground. Then we drove up a mountain and looked at painfully beautiful views. After that we walked the walk and placed our hands inside the prints of big name stars. We visited an amazing church visitor’s center, and then finally; we ended the day with a visit to a place called Roscoe’s, where we were served fried chicken and waffles, and my world was seriously rocked (in such a good way)!

The best ever chicken and waffles ever ever ever!!!

Fried Chicken and Waffles

You guys!!! Fried Chicken and waffles is the best food combination! Especially with butter on the waffles and then syrup poured over everything. Oh Lawdy!!! The most incredible food  combination you will ever eat.

You may remember from my Beef Tenderloin post that when I eat good foods, then I can’t help but make crazy noises. Y’all, I was making crazy happy noises then. As were my kids with their high pitched and excited squeals. The fried chicken and waffles was more than good.

    I needed a good fried chicken recipe so I came here. My coating never EVER stays on, and I don't like to use a lot of oil, but I'm going to give this a try because I know all of your recipes are absolutely amazing.
