What could be nicer at the end of a chilly, rainy day than fried chicken for supper?
Ethan and Aileen were here for the weekend and I decided to make this meal that's always been a family favorite -- fried chicken, mashed potatoes and peppery gravy, green beans cooked the old timey way (for a long time, with bacon) and, as a nod to healthful eating, a green salad.
For dessert -- a raspberry buckle with optional heavy cream. I used my mother's blueberry buckle recipe, left out the cinnamon in the topping, and substituted frozen raspberries for the blueberries.
