It's hard to gripe when the menu is put together by the Boss. We went with a garden theme this year and had lots of veggies. There was the usual tray of brocoli, cauliflower, cucumber, bell pepper and carrots with ranch dip.
Then the Boss fired up the deep fryer (all real big game food must be fried) and cranked out some first rate tempura. All of the previously mentioned veggies got the coat-and-cook treatment with the exception of the cauliflower and 'cukes. She also dipped mushrooms, sweet potatoes and zuchini.
Top it off with Wings for me (none of my uncultured children will eat them and I like it that way) and chicken nuggets for them and you have the makings of a pretty good spread. The only thing we forgot to do was make homeade root beer. We had done that for four or five years in a row, and this year it slipped our minds until it was too late to do anything about it.
The food was the best part of the day.
