“Sisters make the best friends in the world.”
—Marilyn Monroe

“For there is no friend like a sister in calm or stormy weather; To cheer one on the tedious way, To fetch one if one goes astray, To lift one if one totters down, To strengthen whilst one stands.”
—Christina Rossetti

“Sisters are different flowers from the same garden.”
—Anonymous

There are many great sayings about sisters and that is for a reason.  When we were kids, I did not like the idea of having a sister.  But as an adult I love and appreciate my sister.  Some of my best times are spent with my sister.  We are looking forward to a trip we are going to take together.  We both enjoy planning, so we got together to plan our trip.  I had her over for dinner at my place while we planned.  I wanted to create a special meal she would enjoy.  So I made Chicken Thighs Dijon a dish with boneless chicken thighs in a savory sauce of coriander, fresh tarragon, chicken broth and sour cream.  I served it with a slice of baguette to soak up the sauce.  As a side dish I made Swiss Chard.  Our salad was Peach Cucumber Salad with lime vinaigrette dressing. The meal was a success.  You’ll find these recipes and more ideas as you explore the Cooking With Denise website.
