My sister-in-law did it again. She made another amazing meal. She's quite the home chef herself. Her talents are attributed to her fine dining and catering background as well as her family's long line of culinary talent. She has the beat on the latest modern cuisine with a keen memory of tried and true family traditions.
She really outdid herself for our father's birthday.
I added in my
baked beans by the request of my beloved new sister. She was in charge of the well-balanced menu, so it was flattering that she had asked for one of my recipes to marry into the meal.
Here is the wonderful menu and photos:
