Good morning everyone! No school here today because of the primary. Katie is having a couple of friends over for a "fairy" day. We're doing fairy crafts and having a yummy sante fe chicken (now there's some hearty "fairy" food for you). I was going to make some little tea cakes and tiny sandwiches for fairy food, but I'm a single parent AGAIN this week so crockpot food was more my speed.

I thought I'd post the recipe in case anyone wants it.

Ingredients
3 boneless skinless chicken breasts (I throw them in completely frozen)
1/2-1 package taco seasoning (I buy this in bulk so I just sprinkle some on)
1 can corn (drained)
1 can black beans (rinsed and drained)
1+ cup salsa
1 8oz. brick cream cheese

Throw the chicken in the crock pot along with the beans, corn, taco seasoning and salsa. Cook on high until the chicken is done (it's about 3-4 hours when I put it in from a frozen state so judge accordingly). When it's done take the chicken out and shred it. Cut the cream cheese into squares and throw in the crockpot (the first time I made it I had about a 1.5 inch block of velveeta left so I threw that in also and make it that way all the time now). Cook on low one more hour (I usually add a little more salsa at this point). Stir it all up and enjoy.

Here are some ways we enjoy it:
On tortilla chips
Rolled up in tortillas with sour cream and salsa on top.
I make a packet of spanish rice and put the chicken mixture and spanish rice in tortillas and cover with enchilada sauce. Sprinkle lightly with cheese and bake until heated through.

It's really yummy!

Have a great day everyone. I probably won't be back until late tonight.

Bought the ingredients this morning...I can't wait to make it! Now, if I could just figure out when we'll all be home at the same time to eat it!

That's always a dilemma isn't it? I just had some leftovers rolled up in a whole wheat tortilla. Totally delish the next day too! Let me know how you like it.

What time should I come over?

 

[Mrs. Fleagle]

What time should I come over?

Any time you like! But the house is a wreck! As long as you don't mind stepping over the Buzz Lightyear "Pyeww Pyeww" gun, some Wii controllers, a potty chair, my daughter's pointe shoes, some books, cars, shoes, and a microphone then come on over!

Hi everyone!

I'm headed to Savannah right now! Take care of each other and I will "see" you when I get back. I am so excited to take Skinny Minnie to Savannah with me and will send her off on a new adventure on Sunday!

I would probably be too wrapped up in the Wii game to notice anything else. Our nephew brought his over when he and his dad visited us in January - that thing is addicting. I suffered a wiinjury from bowling so much, but I was so close to a perfect game - I just had to keep trying!!

DH is hooked on Halo on his XBox, so I think it's only fair that I get a Wii for myself, right?

I agree.....you deserve a Wii. Actually my arm was sore too when we first got it. Also my derriere was a bit achy....my have been my bowling "technique"

They have Wii Fit now which looks awesome. We just pre-ordered it... it's like an exercise program designed just for you. You enter your info and tell it what your goal is and it gives you a work out program complete with your own virtual trainer. Great for people like me who don't have time to go to a gym but needs to exercise more "specific" areas. Plus I'm not much for working out in public....I like my privacy. (Plus if I wimp out no one will yell at me)

Speaking of exercise...must get to work now.

Have a great afternoon everyone!

•••••The Mama Bird Came Back!•••••

I woke up this morning, scared of what I'd find...hoping that the predator didn't return......and gues what? I walked down the stair relieved to see the tip of the topiary still standing up, and then lots of movement in the "globe". I got closer and mama was back with her baby!

Thanks guys for letting me share....I know it was a silly story.

YAY for mama and baby bird!!!!!!!
I am SOOOO glad to see this!!! I couldn't hardly stand for that to happen! Not silly at all. I guess I'm a big dork too. We had some hail a little bit ago and I had to go check on the mama robin that's been sitting in her nest for 2 days now. Of course she is fine, but still!

 

[tothesea]

The trip is confirmed for the 13th - 16th, but specifics about which parks on which days, or exactly which functions are still up in the air. Last trip we stayed at the Yacht Club Resort and this time I think I'll be staying at the Wilderness Lodge (I'm really excited about that as that's one of the few resorts I've never even set foot in!)

I still get so excited thinking about you getting to be there and do all that you will get to do...and so glad to hear you will keep getting the royal treatment...deluxe hotels! How cool!!! Just have fun Justin, enjoy each moment knowing this is only the beginning!!

 

[tothesea]
