You’re so very welcome friends! Check out the fabulous specials for Orlando hotels! I mean GoodnessGracious! Me personally, I’ve never been.  BUT, I cannot imagine it gets any better that staying in one of these great places.  I mean WOW! From what I read some of these places are pretty much at your beck and call!! What could possibly be better?!?!?!

You know the old saying ‘You can’t teach an old dog new tricks’? Well, I want to know if you can teach an old lady new tricks.  I used to play the clarinet in high school.  Not very exciting, I know.  I always thought it would be more fun to play the flute or the saxophone or something, but I played the boring clarinet.

I don’t even remember why I played the clarinet. I don’t remember liking it, really.  My sister played the coronet.  I that an instrument? I think it is…It’s something like a trumpet, right? LOL I’ve always liked the guitar.  And the piano.  I have always admired the piano players in our church.  Getting up there Sunday after Sunday playing offertories and specials.

I’ve often thought about trying to learn to play guitar or piano, I hear they are similar.  But I am getting too old for that now.  I can’t even remember to brush my teeth before bed.  Goodness gracious, how would I ever learn to play guitar?!?!?

Carry on people, Carry on….

So I sat here thinking to myself, wondering what I was going to do.  I remembered Buster buying some chicken breast tenderloins the other day and I knew I had a couple other ingredients in the fridge that should go well together.  I was like the mad scientist mixing this concoction together in my head, and I thought to myself, “self, this could work!”

MMMUUUAAHAAHHAA Just kidding, sort of.

So this is what I came up with.

Cream Cheese Chicken (for 2)

find this:

• 6 chicken breast tenderloins
• 1/2 block (about 4 oz) cream cheese
• about 1/2 -3/4 c.  (I just eye balled it) sour cream
• garlic salt, to taste
• pepper, to taste
• 2 T. butter, cut into pieces

do this:

• season your chicken breast tenderloins and place tenderloins in baking dish (mine were frozen, would take a lot less time to cook if you thawed them first)
• mix your cream cheese and sour cream together in a bowl
• pour cream cheese mixture over chicken
• cut your 2T. butter into pieces and just put pieces randomly into pan all over chicken and sauce
  
• bake at 350°F for 35-40 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink and cream cheese sauce is bubbly and hot
• periodically stir your sauce as it cooks maybe twice or three times during cooking  so it will be smooth when done

This turned out really good for being thrown together very quickly.  You could serve it with rice or noodles.  I just served it plain with some corn.  I thought about making some egg noodles, but like I said, I wasn’t feeling well, so I didn’t.  Next time I will, It will be yummy!

You could make  it with more chicken to feed more people or less to feed less!

Hope you enjoy  it.  I am linking up with Lisa for Tempt My Tummy Tuesday! Let’s go see what other goodies we can find!!

See you soon!

Normally I don’t have to have such warnings on my posts, but some times, ya gotta do what ya gotta do, ya know what I’m sayin’?

I think you do. Today I wanted to talk about How to spice up your marriage a lil’ bit.  Some times we get in a rut.  Life gets busy with the job and kids and church and just life in general.  Some times we just need a little something to to spice things up.

I found just the thing!! These  fishnet panties ought to do the trick, don’t ya think?? Wowza!! I know they would get my hubby droolin’ for sure!   TeeHee…lots of cute stuff over there, no??

Have fun, but not too much…

A friend of mine from Montana used to own a pair of redfeather snowshoes.  She would walk all over in the winter time with them.  Just for fun.  And exercise.    I always thought that was a cool way to get exercise in the winter.  That and cross country skiing.  I’ve done that before, But I’ve never used snow shoes.  I think that would be fun.

HHHmmm…now I wanna see my friend, and go to Montana, and go snow shoeing…

OK, TTYL!! BYE!

My husband, who has a very mathematical brain (he’s good with angles and all that) is way better at it then I am!!

Anyway, I thought it would be cool to put our color logo on golf balls.  The camps logo, that is…Wouldn’t that be neat?  The kids could even buy them for souvenir’s.  Ya know, buy it, play with it, take it home…

It’s a good way to get the camp’s name ”out there”, yes?    

Fort Faith Camp ROCKS!!!     

I am so excited I can hardly stand it.  I hope I can get Mr. Linky to cooperate!! I have heard horror stories.  But I am keeping a positive attitude!! Mr. Linky and I are going to be good friends!! (right Mr. Linky?!?)

So, without further ado, I bring you (drum roll please)…

Taco Rice Casserole (from Laura@HomemakingJoyfully)

Here is what has happened since I last talked to you…

My sweet Jasmine went to live with a new family.  We miss her tons, but this was the best thing for her and us.  I think the hardest thing is when we come home and she isn’t  here to greet us with all her excitement that we are home, it’s just the empty house.

Buster had hernia surgery yesterday, for the second time.  Last time he threw up for three days after the surgery, which tore the stitches that repaired the hernia, so he got another one.  So, when they fixed this one, they gave him meds that would help with nausea and they put a mesh screen in that would prevent it from happening again.   He is very sore and tired, but he has no thrown up at all!! Praise the Lord for answered prayers!!

So that is what has been going on here…Don’t forget to enter my Giveaway !!
