Welcome!

Welcome to Simple Fare, Fairly Simple. This is a place for me to post recipes of all kinds...along with other miscellaneous fodder from my so-called life here in the south. Who knows what you will find here. Could be anything from my husband...known as IT Guy...to my kids and beautiful grandbabies that are growing up way too fast right before my eyes. But...mostly this will be a place for food. I hope you'll see something you like and if you decide to try something from the list...leave me a comment and let me know!

Pineapple Chicken Wings

Yep, yep, yep! These wings are SO good! If you like making Asian food at home then you are in for a treat because these are good, good, good! Now of course IT Guy wouldn't touch them because he's crazy and doesn't like stuff like this...but I can tell you it's very yummy! And easy, too! These would make great appetizers for your next party or tailgate extravaganza!
