New Recipe

This is what I am making for supper on Friday after we have been at the clinic most of the day - doesn't it look delicious?


Crock Pot Chicken Taco Chili

There is nothing like a lazy Sunday when you have a meal cooking all day in the crock pot and the aroma of food is in the air, or coming home from work on a weeknight and having dinner ready when you get home. I love my slow cooker and this chicken chili is a delicious, low point, high fiber meal. It's so easy to make and it is great over rice, with multi-grain chips, topped with low fat cheddar cheese or low fat sour cream. This makes a lot and it is even better the next day for lunch!

A Post

Here you go Cathy - I am updating my blog.


Paul and I have news! Baby L is on their way with EDD of June 21st, 2010. It's hard to believe in less than 7 months Paul and I will be parents! It's exciting, and scary, and overwhelming all at the same time! I am already getting advice from everyone and their cousin - the next few months will be interesting! I can't wait until I start to feel normal again...


So the house hunt has been thrown into high gear - we now have a deadline! I would like to live closer to my parents, but that would mean a longer commute to work.
