home canned grape juice

In the Kitchen with Linda & Dinner Menu

I don’t normally complain….but…..

My husband and I went to Cheddar’s Casual Cafe Friday night to celebrate our 34th wedding anniversary. I had this Grilled Chicken Alfredo. Unfortunately, the chicken tasted burnt. I tried to eat just the inside of the chicken, but it tasted off. The chicken had burnt crumbs come off it and flavor the pasta underneath. I couldn’t eat but a few bites of my meal. I told the server, and he did apologize for the burnt chicken. Then said when I came back and ordered it again, if it tasted burnt to let him now sooner and he might be able to get me another piece of chicken.

That would be a fail Cheddars.

He could clearly see that I barely touched my meal and I didn’t get it to go. I think I should have been offered a discount on my meal. At the very least I feel like I should have been given a coupon for my next visit. Even a $5 off coupon would have been a nice gesture. I’m not very happy with Cheddars.

There was actual cooking going on in my kitchen last week. Promise.

 

I even canned 5 quarts of grape juice! I tried a new recipe. You simply put 1 cup of grapes and 1/2 cup sugar in a quart jar. Fill with boiling water. Process in a water bath for 25 minutes.

Now the hard part. Letting it sit for 3 months before we drink it. lol

 

We will most likely be having a cook out tonight for Labor Day. It’s supposed to be 92 here in Kentucky today. So we may possibly cancel. Who wants to sit around the fire pit when it’s in the 90’s?!
