Check me out over at At Work, At Play or At Home All Day talking about girlie stuff:-)
Here, I am doing more menu planning with I'm an Organizing Junkie and finding more deals at Pick N Save for $5 Dinners .
The holidays are in full swing and I am busier than ever. I have two doctor's appointments for Mom, a Daisy meeting, volunteering twice and an evening out. Thank goodness for good old Pick N Save. They have chicken on sale for $1.59/lb. (normally $4.79/lb.) and it's a good thing because...
Amongst all this, I am still playing along with I Blame My Mother on The Food Network Chefs Cooking Challenge (FNCCC). This week the chef of choice is Dave Lieberman. I am making his Mexican Chicken Stew. Check out the recipebelow!
