October 11,2008, Anita's Kitchen in America.  For the Fil-Am Charities Foundation, I decided to cook American Foods.  The menu :  Breaded Oysters, Salmon with Apple Butter, Cajun Oven Fried Chicken, fruits and Mango Float for dessert.  I had help from my friends Janine Dinio and Chuchi Lokken. I had to work in the morning, rush home at 2:30, shucked the oysters while salmon was in the oven.  The oysters were served on the bleached oyster shells I collected and saved.  The dishes were all different to break the monotony of having matching dishes.  They were the conversation pieces  and what can I think next?  Everything turned out delicious and the hospitality of Anita's Kitchen included take home to the family, dishes and all but the teapot collections stayed.

I had ANITA'S KITCHEN  tarpaulen covering the beautiful arts of Janine on her wall. 

One dinner done, the next will be the Halloween dinner on  October 17.
