Sesame Buffalo Wings

I found the most amazing recipe for buffalo wings! Don't worry Heather & Cindy, they aren't spicy! So you can eat it too! (p. 285 NT for Heather & Linnea)

I double the marinade and use 1/2 to marinade and the other half as a dip. Very important to pat dry before you bake it! Enjoy!

Sesame Buffalo Wings

24 chicken wings, separated at the joints

1/2 cup soy sauce

1/2 cup rice vinegar

2 TBS honey

juice of 2 lemons

grated rind of 2 lemons

1 clove garlic, peeled and mashed

1 tsp curry powder

1/4 tsp ground ginger

1/2 tsp dried oregano

1/2 tsp dried thyme

1/2 tsp dried green peppercorns, crushed

3 TBS melted butter

1/4 cup sesame seeds

Mix soy sauce, vinegar, honey, lemon juice, lemon rind and all seasonings. Marinate buffalo wings in the mixture several hours or overnight. Remove from mixture and pat dry. Place in a stainless steel baking pan, brush with butter, sprinkle with sesame seeds and bake at 350 degrees about 1 1/4 hours. May be served with the marinade, gently heated, as a dip.

OUT SICK

I haven't gotten around to blogging since the wedding, although I do have lots of pictures to blog about, apt., wedding, etc. I've been a little preoccupied. Here's what happened. Friday night Clark gets a terrible tooth ache. REALLY bad one.
Luckily Mom & Dad had some strong pain killers lying around, although it barely lessened the pain. By Saturday his face was a balloon! Sunday, he was going crazy with pain, unable to sleep, unable to eat, ear infection, head ache, fever, unable to talk, and choking on his own saliva if he tried. Monday morning first thing we go to a dentist and the verdict? Nope, not a bad cavity. He has an infection in his wisdom tooth. Apparently it's a serious thing and could be deadly. Good thing it wasn't a 3 day weekend! This is what he looked like after 3 days of antibiotics! (3 weeks later, swelling down still can't open mouth fully...)
Pretty fat. As soon as the swelling is down he gets his wisdom teeth pulled and then he'll get another fat face. You can't get stretch marks on your cheeks, can you?
