Joan,
I have read many of your posts and recipes and thank you for posting them. I have been trying to figure out who is DH? The only thing I can come up with is Da Husband. Please correct me if I am wrong.
 
Joe, your the second one today to ask me about that. lol Here is what I said.

"It's computer talk for Dear Husband. At least that is what they told me over 15 years ago. lol"

And thank you for reading my posts and recipes ;) (hope you find some that you want to make. If not, point me in the right direction and I will be happy to post what you like.)

OK, the truth? The mango ruined it all. DH bought one today and it just was not ripe enough. And we only cooked 2 bone-in thighs. But, they were very tasty, especially the skin. I don't even want to get into what happened with the rice.
