Advent Calendar - Day 19

 Meg Perry's post got me thinking about chicken wings. This recipe for "Heroin Wings" is the SO's, and it's my absolute favorite. He makes them for me on special occasions (like I manage to finish a book)  or something equally amazing.

Try them. I think you'll really like them.
