My Mom

Well Family I would like to thank you for sharing my mommy this weekend. I am super excited for her to be here!!!! So I hope you survive with out her. :)

Guitar Hero!

Is anyone else basically addicted to this game? I love it! We played it for our Monday FHE and I learned a new trick! The notes on the screen that have white tops can be played by just pushing the colored buttons and not strumming... it's amazing :)

Nae.....

That's a mole hill

YAY VALENTINES DAY!!!

Well for all of you romantics and those non ones as well. I would like to know what you did for Valentines Day! Nae get any flowers from secret admirers? Allen how many girls gave you a kiss? Jacob did you give a valentine to anyone special? Mom and Dad what did you do? Sarah did Stephen love your dinner?
I created a treasure hunt for David. He picked up puzzle pieces with each clue in the end he put it together and it was a two page list of things I love about him. Meanwhile I was putting the finishing touches on his favorite meal lasagna!!! We ate by candlelight and he brought in a rose along with a hilarous card and a cute pink pig (stuffed animal of course). For desert we had heart rice crispies (carrying on the tradition mom). Then we snuggled on the couch and ate strawberries and whip cream. It was a wonderful night! Hope everyone had a great day!

A Happy Valentine's Day Recipe

I got to take the reins for Valentine's Day this year! Stephen and I decided that we are trying to save money, so I created a lovely little restaurant out of my kitchen (complete with sparkling cider, candle light, and romantic music). I made Chicken Parmesan and it was bascially AMAZING tasting so I thought I'd share the recipe. It's cheap and really easy to make. (both needed qualities for starving college students.)

Parmesan Chicken
1 jar (26 oz.) spaghetti sauce
6 Tbs Grated Parmesan Cheese

6 small boneless skinless chicken breast halves (1-1/2 lb.)
1-1/2 cups Shredded Mozzarella Cheese

PREHEAT oven to 375°F. Pour sauce into 13x9-inch baking dish. Stir in 4 Tbsp. (1/4 cup) of the Parmesan cheese. Add chicken; turn over to evenly coat both sides with sauce. Cover with foil.

BAKE 30 min. Uncover.

TOP with mozzarella cheese and remaining 2 Tbsp. Parmesan cheese; continue baking 5 min. or until chicken is cooked through and cheese is melted. Serve over noodles if desired.

So I don't usually follow recipes very well except for the oven part. It's basically putting spaghetti sauce and cheese on chicken. And definitely put it over noodles! (it's the best that way!)
