This was part of our Christmas feast of 2010. After I exhausted my existence as a garlic fairy (I think we collectively peeled and minced at least 5 balls of garlic–a semi-frightening amount, even for us), there wasn’t enough room for all of us to be in the kitchen. Thus, I was exiled to the table to eat all the chicken I could stuff down my throat. A fine trade, if you ask me, since I’d had nothing to eat other than a 波萝包 at 10 a.m. (It was 8 p.m. I’m not sure how I was still alive and kickin’, but my body never fails to amaze me.) On my first round, I had four drumsticks, 1/4 the broccoli, 3 pieces of lamb, a full plate of potatoes, a bowl of soup, a fat slice of garlic bread, a bowl of pesto pasta, and a slice of pie with ice cream. (insert happy sigh here)
