Blogger Buddy

Got a new Blogger Buddy Icon for my gadget Sidebar. Wicked cool!! This is my first post using my new blogger buddy. I can already say " I LOVE IT!" Maybe this can help me keep up with my blogs. I did write a new short story but it is explicit erotic fantasy. I am debating on whether to post it or not. Let me know what you think.

OMG! They killed Grace! Oh man, I haven't been that heartbroken since Charmed killed off Prue Halliwell. Series finale of Saving Grace. Grace dies in an explosion that we hope took out that evil guy too. Just as she excepted God into her heart. With that said...
Tonight, Chicken noodle soup and chicken salad.

3 lbs chicken
2 stalks celery
whole fresh mushrooms
spinach leaves
lettuce
shredded cheese
can of cream of celery
can of cream of chicken
1 cup elbow noodles
whole red onion

Boiled chicken and shredded it. 1/3 for salad, and 2/3 for soup. Used chicken water added one celery stalk, mushrooms, and 2/3 onion and noodles. When noodles were almost done added chicken back to water and the two cans of soup. Mixed and heated through.
For the salad I put the other celery stalk and rest of mushrooms, spinach leaves, lettuce head, shredded cheese, 1/3 onion. Topped with bacon bits and dressing.

Yummy! Elbow noodles might have been the wrong noodle. Boyfriend says rice might have been better.

Went grocery shopping today for the week, spent 80 dollars and got food for all week. Spent all day on ancestry.com. Found another cousin! It was very exciting. My girls might be getting sick. We shall see how they feel tomorrow. Raven finally found the joy of listening to music. She went on and on about all the music she found. Listened to Stevie Wonder and found him amazing. LOL. Hopefully she will keep it up if she wants to be a singer she needs to.

Didnt do so great on them, but at least they are finished, and that ends week two in this block of classes. We also said happy birthday to Amber today. Hence the chocolate cake and ice cream.

Inbox Dollars

SO, I am trying this new approach to making money from home. I found Inbox Dollars, and they really do pay you for reading emails, filling out surveys, playing games, referring friends, or completeing offers. You can see my banner over on the side, clicking on that will take you straight to Inbox Dollars. I spend alot of time on this site and the more time I spend the more emails they send me. It isnt alot at first but the longer you work at it the more money comes in. But dont take my word for it, check it out. Just click, or you can make a donation by clicking on my donate button. I am raising money to buy my family our first home after 20 years in trailer parks and dead end jobs.

So, after buying a huge jar of pickles, my little one loves dill pickles, I am left with a huge jar of pickle juice. One of my friends used to drink my pickle juice but since I moved he isnt around to drink it anymore so I went online to find out what can I do with my pickle juice? I found a nice thread of different pickle juice uses. It mostly boiled down to anything you normal use pickles in you can also use pickle juice to add extra flavor. Such as potato salad, blood mary mix, or tuna salad. A lot of receipes that call for vinger you may sub pickle juice if you dont mind the pickle flavor. Julia Child's is credited with the suggestion of adding pickle juice to your water when poaching eggs. It apparently helps with keeping the white together.
Several posts on an article on seriouseats.com suggested using pickle juice in to marinate meats or using for dressings. It was even suggested as a hangover cure, most likely from the high salt content since after a night of drinking you are actually really dehydrated.
As for me, my mother used to pour pickle juice over her rose bushes.
Anyone have any other suggestions?

Move

Well, we moved. We are in the country now, back down south. Because of the unemployment situation we have no job. Our new place is a crappy two bedroom trailer in a park. I can at least say I am back south where the air is warmer and it is ok to play in the rain. We are looking at buying a real home here in the country. A real home for the first time in my life. I want to open a home daycare and give my girls some friends to play with. If you want to help us out just hit the donate button. All money will go to buy us a real home for the first time in my life. Thank you.
