Did you say deep fry party?

Yes, yes I did. This all started when Nick purchased his indoor deep fryer, "Fred". We talked it over with some coworkers and decided a deep fryer dinner party was in order. Everyone brought something to fry up and then we all basked in the cholesterol. It was delightful. The menu consisted of macaroni and cheese, pickles, potato chips, mozzarella sticks with homemade marinara sauce, calamari, chicken tenders, doughnuts and Oreos! Yes, all deep fried. I also had a few random steamed shrimp dumplings, but they seemed out of place -- but still yummy. I highly suggest hosting a deep fryer party :)

I've decided to include links to the recipes I have access to instead of taking up too much space in typing them all...and it's late and I'm tired :) I was unable to get pictures of everything (I know, I fail at life), but have included those I did snap and those recipes I do have or were sent from those that contributed. Enjoy!

Deep Fried Mac n' Cheese (I failed at capturing a photo of these -- but very tasty with Ranch!)
