Okay, I was only the assistant here, the dishes weren't really my choice, except some of the sides. I decided to experiment a bit with the sides, and I've learned my lesson with certain things, and have developed a drive to try certain things even more XD

Anyway, so my friend wanted to make buttermilk fried chicken and buttermilk biscuits. It was super chaotic, we served about an hour and a half after we wanted to, but still, it was amazing, and an unforgettable meal.

So here's the lineup:

-Buttermilk Fried Chicken...26 pieces. THAT'S A LOT OF PIECES.
-Buttermilk Biscuits, 12 of them
-A hell of a lot of mashed potato
-A salad
-Nutella Cookies

The last three were my choosing. And there's a funny story behind them XD

Anyway, here begins the story. So basically, we get to the house we're cooking at around 2, we dick around for a bit, then we go shopping for groceries. We get back around 4, and immediately it's crunch time since we need to get the marinade set up instantly and get those suckers in the fridge to tenderize. So Kevin works on the marinade while I cut up the salad, soak it in iced water [protip, this keeps the lettuce feeling fresh when you eat it; give it plenty of space and don't bruise it], and helped mix the batter for the fried chicken.

Around 6, I got to work on the taters, shaving the skin off and SAVING THEM, and slicing them up. Then I simmered them in 72 degree water [Celcius of course, piss off Americans even though I love in the US XD] for 30 minutes to toughen up the cell walls [THANKS HESTON :D] so the starch doesn't get everywhere when you boil it. At this point, Kevin is working on the dough for the buttermilk biscuits, which went quite well, but smelled a bit sour. Wasn't that big a deal though.

I'm glad I practiced my knife skills. That came in handy. I sliced 6 spuds into relatively small pieces in five minutes! Better than when it used to take me 20 T_T

Anyway, so then at around 7:30 we went out for coffee, since I was starting to get a headache, and then at 8 we really began to cook. As it turns out, spuds take forever to boil, especially when you have 6 of them in one pot. I'm watching his biscuits for him while he's outside on a propane stove with two giant pots filled with oil, frying chicken...and the chicken has to sit in 155 degree oil for 20 minutes. There was a lot of chicken to go through, they kept running out of batter.

This pushed me to the brink; the spuds had finished boiling, and I was pushing them through a sieve [I like the texture when you do that], and there was a lot of potato to go through, so some people started helping me, and I had to mix the batter, which was getting everywhere so I needed to calm down XD

I also made the vinaigrette for the salad and mixed the batter for my microwaved nutella cookies at the same time. I saw this page on the internet, I was curious. I couldn't resist.

Also, I was simmering the potato skins in milk, and then adding that with butter and salt to the mash. DO THIS. It tastes amazing ;D

Anyway, after a lot of headache, a lot of stress, Kevin learning some things about leading in the kitchen, we finished the meal around 11:30, and here's what we got:
