Back in the day I wrote about how much I love Rhodes rolls. Seriously awesome stuff. They recently sent me a a box full of Rhodes goodies to say thank you for writing nice things about them. I wasn’t planning on mentioning them again…but every single product we tried was delicious. So, thank you Rhodes! You’re the best! If your grocery store carries Rhodes, you should definitely be eating it for me…I don’t have it here in the Bay Area and it makes me sad.

I’ll try to put together a menu but had to make a Rhodes comment. Three of my aunts and some of my cousins work for them…do you have any of their cookbooks? My aunt (Jenna Jackson) used to do all of their advertising and well, a lot of other stuff. I wish I could get Rhodes dough here. No such luck. Have you ever made the marshmallow bombs? They are a GREAT company run by GREAT people.
We like Rhodes Rolls–especially the cinnamon ones, as well, and LOVE the family that owns it 🙂

I made three chicken dishes last week, and learned a new trick for my son. He now says “I’m going to like this” to himself before trying something, increasing his palate 50%. It’s really cute to see him retry something and then say – I like it! It did not work with carrot juice or nopales today, though.
I cooked chicken breasts that had been cut up and dredged in cornstarch just in a gyoza dipping sauce from Trader joes, they loved it. Served with leftover rice from the lamb curry the night before.
I baked chicken legs for the kids – mixing oil, ketchup, soy sauce and honey and spreading it over the legs. Then for us took chicken tenders marinated in white wine, garlic, mustard, oil, lemon pepper …think that’s it and baked with artichoke hearts. That came out so good. Would be even better served over pasta.
