40 Clove Garlic Chicken
Dinner Tonight Was So, So, So Right!
This recipe is a classic, and for good reason. There are probably hundreds of variations, if not thousands; this one is mine. Bon appetit!
- 2 to 2 1/2 lbs chicken pieces (skin-on and bone-in — I prefer thighs)

A New Look For The Tony Burgess Blog From A Familiar Theme #wordpress
An important part of blogging is how the reader responds. They can’t respond if the typeface is too small or there is too much going on the screen at one time. I have used 1, 2 and 3 column layouts in my blogging career but the two column seems to strike a good balance of information and content with some eye candy thrown in.
The Toujours theme offers a font size that is easy to read along with plenty of blank space it doesn’t seem so crowded. I have used this theme before but I am employing some new ways to display recent posts among other features to make the blog stand out.
I hope you will enjoy my blog even more with these aesthetic and functional changes. Your interest in me and this blog are appreciated.
Blog Construction Ahead
I am going to be doing some work on the blog today. Things might not function or look right for a bit. Hang with me.
Status Update
Thank God we are at the end of one hell of a week. I am very glad its the weekend. My goodness.
