Back to the Recipes: Easy Chicken Wings
I'm back :-) I had one VERY busy September and that kept me so insanely busy, I couldn't see straight, never mind keep up here, too.

Add in one kid's birthday (which I blogged about here, plus some other nice things about that particular kid ;-) and it was INSANE.
I had lots of great recipes this month...but no time to blog about them. And now I'm going to try to get caught up!
These chicken wings I made for a Labor Day party. They were insanely easy, and not the regular hot and spicy kind that people expect. I got them from Bon Appetit magazine, which is quickly becoming my new favorite. I know, it sounds like the hard kind of cooking magazine, but surprisingly, a good third to half of the recipes in there are pretty easy, and they have a whole section of easy ones in each issue.

1/4 cup soy sauce
2 tablespoons butter
3 pounds chicken wings, cut apart (meaning, you have the drumstick and the wing part separated....
