I have an idea.........<br><br>I too am looking forward to a photo of your sock monkey.

It would have weakened my resolve. Just reading "sock monkey" makes me smile. He will love it.<br>I tend to do the: Can I try harder tomorrow? Not admonishing myself, just reminding.

Since I had to go pick up a few items for my Mom and check on her I lowered the oven temp to 325 degrees. This is truly delicious and what a keeper of a recipe! I just can't get over the fact that you and I would have the same chicken meal at the same time! Those odds would never happen again, would they? <br><br>In addition to helping us become better cooks and bakers, my dear friend, you are helping us to become the best people we can be as you are forever planting little seeds in our minds. And to think we actually act on them! Why? Because you are so inspirational!

This was a great post and I enjoyed it very much. I don't keep stuffing mix in my pantry but I often use Corn Flakes or some other cereal, crushed, as a coating for chicken that I bake and I bet it would be delicious with this sauce. blessings, marleneStitchinByTheLakehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04501479854150315011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-762115079758642698.post-82587259011484039992009-02-25T14:06:00.000+00:002009-02-25T14:06:00.000+00:00Such a very tender post, Marie...Very good questio...Such a very tender post, Marie...Very good questions we can ask ourselves at the end of a day.

I did one of hour dishes laast week. I soaked chicken breasts in buttermilk, then dredged them in Ritz cracker crumbs , dotted with butter and baked. Huge hit with the family!!!!

Almost all get accomplished when I have him is play. On Mondays I take him to story time at the library and then we check out a "Thomas and Friends" DVD. Then we come home, have lunch and watch the DVD. One thing leads to another and before I know it, it is time to make dinner, eat, put him in the bath, have a mini family night and put him down for the night. I rarely have much to show for the day.<br>Tues is much the same until I drive him to preschool.<br><br> I think that I should start asking myself your questions each day. I need to be more productive and get more accomplished. I am going to ask your questions and hold myself accountable. Thanks for the inspiration.<br><br>I did get a little silver top made for Claire's costume for the talent show Sat. Austin was playing beside me but bored. At one point he wanted to use my sewing shears to cut some paper. When I told him no he said "Grammy if you can't share I'm not going to come over to your house and then you will be really really sad." I guess that he set me straight!<br><br>The chicken looks so good. I know we will enjoy having that for dinner. I had a great tea with Kris and Jan today and we thought of you.<br>I am hopping over to see you new little girl now. I know that I will love her. I love all of your work<br>I miss you.Take care.
