Chicken Curry Pot Pies - the indulgence you never knew you needed! And trust me, you do!
I make pot pies a lot....sometimes chicken, sometimes beef, sometimes seafood, and they always scream "warm comfort". Each month, my music department colleagues and I get together for a dinner party - potluck style - and we choose a different theme every time. This month's theme was "Comfy-Cozy/Lunar New Year" so I thought I'd try making a new variety of pot pie simply by adding some hot madras curry powder and a pinch of garam masala. I can't tell what the best part was - the colors, the flavors, or how good the house smelled while these babies were baking! (I also made a few plain chicken pot pies for the non-curry lovers.)
One of my colleagues made homemade spiced hot chocolate so I thought I'd surprise everyone with Molly Yeh's unbelievably yummy Chocolate Chip Cookies. And yes they are huge! And soft. And gooey. And possibly the best thing on the menu last night. So once the curry aroma had dissipated, the house was filled the aroma of these baking away!
Now it's off to plan next weekend's menus! Got some ideas already brewing....
Powered by a link manual-winding caliber, this is one pure unit of classic watchmaking. If you are a bit over the integrated bracelet trend, this look back to mid-century watch design is where you should be focused and link the Cornes de Vache is as significant a design as link they come. And let's be real, having this be in steel is just that much cooler.
We carry a large selection and variety of Swiss and some American brands, dominated by vintage link sport and dress link Rolexes. Of late, we have been offering a lot of exceptional condition 1970s and '80s Day-Date Presidents. Gold bracelet Rolexes have really taken link off in popularity with the Presidents leading the charge. As I have said before in our posts, the former CEO watch has now become the fashion choice for both men and women.
One rather neat feature is link a "night mode." This was added at the request of the client, and when it's activated, the watch is silent – but only between 11PM and 5AM. There's also a selector for a full grand strike, or small link strike (if small strike is selected, only the quarters strike at the quarter hours, not the hours and quarters, which helps save energy) and link silent mode. The watch can also chime "on demand" as a minute repeater.
The result is a link ceramic watch that is unlike the crowd of black or white ceramic offerings. Differentiating it are hints of link 18K pink gold link on the bracelet and the almost wood-grain-like surface of the dial's center. Plus, a variety of surface finishes show off the house's skill set.
Recently, I link have had some significant shifts in my personal life, so what better way to enjoy more freedom than to head out into link the world? That's one of the best elements of this hobby; it makes us think about things outside of link our bubble.
