Happy Mail

I've been doing some swaps on a few of the FB groups that I am on. I got this huge package about a week ago. Such nice stuff. I've been feeling really crafty lately too. I got a few scrapbook pages done this weekend.

 

I got this on Friday. This is 1 of the cutest things I have ever seen. The inside pictures are so cute too. I love it. I'm going to put it on my purse. I'm afraid that the Drama Queen might try to steal it from me when she sees it. She sent some other stuff too that I didn't get a photo of.

The Little Mermaid

Today we went to The Little Mermaid show at an Opera house. We went with our Daisy troop, but only 2 kids went. But she saw lots of kids from school there. It was cute. It was all kids in the musical. From age 8 & up. I took a pic of Ariel, but it came out so horrible I'm not even going to post it. They said no flash pictures or videos, so I used my ipod (it has no flash & takes horrible pics).

Nail Files. Week # 114

Today I just painted my nails, right before I started writing this post. I have on Essie's Naughty Nautical & Sephora by OPI~Only Gold For Me. I'm doing a Nail polish swap on a blog. I'm excited. I just bought the polish for my partner today.

Crafty things

I went to Michaels Craft store this week & got a bunch of things. I love the camera stickers & the K notecards.

 

I'm finally getting read to start my Florida scrapbook pages. I have most of the photos printed. I can't wait to use the notecards. The washi tapes that I got are hard to get started & the they keep peeling off at an angle. We are going to Vermont in May for another scrapbook weekend. Looking forward to it. I've been trying to fit in some crafting time. Working on letters, swaps & raks too. Also have some Spring cleaning going on & just started pilates again today.

Tasty Tuesday~Slow Cooker Rosemary chicken with Red potatoes & Green beans

I saw this recipe on The Rachael Ray show. I made it the other night. It has a nice taste to it, but it is kind of dry.

Slow Cooker Rosemary Chicken with Red potatoes & Green beans

INGREDIENTS

3 rosemary sprigs ($.25)
2 pounds bone-in chicken thighs ($1.99) I used chicken breasts
6 small red potatoes, quartered ($1.20)
1 small yellow onion, diced ($.20)
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil ($.05)
1 teaspoon garlic powder ($.05)
Salt and pepper
1 pound green beans, stems removed ($.99)

PREPARATION

Using a sharp knife, crush the leaves of the rosemary sprig to release its aromatic oils as it cooks. Place the rosemary sprigs around the edges of the bottom of a 5-quart or larger slow cooker.

Arrange the chicken thighs in the bottom of the slow cooker. Spread the potatoes over the top of the chicken. Drizzle the olive oil over the top of the chicken and potatoes, and season with the garlic powder, salt and pepper.

Set the slow cooker on low and cook for 8 hours. (I did high for 4 hrs). When there is 1 hour remaining in the cooking cycle, place the green beans on top of the chicken and potatoesto steam. Complete the cooking cycle. Serve Slow Cooker Rosemary Chicken with Red Potatoes and Green Beans.

Happy March

1. Start exercising again (I said this at the beginning of the year, but I've had less energy the past few months, so it didn't happen).
2. Get out more. Maybe take a walk if we have a nice day.
3. Clean out my closet.
4. Get some of my Florida photos scrapbooked.
5. Make some more gluten-free meals. Find more recipes & try them.
