With a mix of ideas in my head and not enough sense to follow somebody else's recipe, I made chicken fingers on the final Thursday evening of May. The weather had turned nice and I was in a picnic mindset, maybe, but I dipped and breaded and fried thin slices of chicken breast and also whipped up a quick batch of cabbage slaw to go with it. I also made both a honey-mustard sauce and a fast-food-style barbecue-enhanced version of the same. The dipping sauces were on point, the breading was not as pronounced as I'd hoped on the chicken, and the slaw was a faithful side ride.
Sumner took up his favorite spot beneath our guest's feet, as he is sweetly contented to do.
But his preference earlier in the day was to splay out on the driveway in order to soak up as much as he could of the welcome sunshine on a dazzling late spring day.
And that morning's appearance of the first daylily bloom at the back door seemed earlier than past years. But no less lovely!
