Time to start my day and dinner but bored with the same meat choices. I cook for a shrimp and steak spouse. He would probably love lobster too, but I am not for cooking anything while it is still alive. I could eat fruits and vegetables (salads) all day long and be perfectly happy with that.
Thanks for any ideas and if you can't think of anything, that's okay too.:) Have a wonderful productive day!!

Easy chicken pot pie. A favorite. Recipe below
This is tooooooooooo easy.
Preheat oven to 350.
You will need:
1 box of 2 prepared pie crusts.
Chicken for stir fry
1 can cream of chicken soup
1 box or half of a small bag of frozen mixed vegetables.
Take one box of prepared pie crust out of the refrigerator and throw it on the counter.
Put the stir fry chicken strips in the oven for 20 minutes on 350 then turn the oven up to 425 after taking the cooked chicken out.
Cut up the chicken and put it in a mixing bowl, add the soup and frozen vegetables and stir it up.
Throw one crust in the bottom of a pie plate, dump the chicken mix in, put the top crust on, pinch together and cover the edges with foil.
Cook 20 minutes with foil, remove foil and cook 20 more minutes.
TA DA! 
My favorite. Chicken marsala & crab cakes.nm

That chicken looks good, too! Fried chicken is the one thing
I'm terrible at making. I just can't do it. Whenever we do have fried chicken maybe once a year, I buy the frozen boxed stuff or KFC.
I haven't thought about dinner yet. I'm making muffins today, spiced applesauce muffins, Tabor City yam bread muffins, and banana zucchini muffins. Going to send some to work with hubby and freeze the rest for breakfasts.
I've had this and doing the dishes too. It's most
Of course if he were doing MY dishes I'd be happy even if he were DICTATING! Yeah, right!
I wash the dishes.
:-)
I love so many fav dishes! Lobster
also love shrimp scampi or chicken, ziti, broc! Basically any type of pasta dish! 
I get tired of daily grind. I get tired of having
horrible dictation/dictators and not able to produce lines, which directly affects my paycheck. I don't mind doing the difficult stuff, and I pretty good at it, but it is stressful and I find it very hard to budget when you never know what your paycheck is going to be. I hate being tied to having earphones on all day. I have children at home (I homeschool and don't have toddlers running around) and my DH works third shift so he is home during the day. I try to work around all this, but can't always. If I had a "desk" job I could be part of conversations at least, but having to have the earphones on you can't do that. I get tired of being sedentary, my feet swell, my shoulders are tired, my elbows hurt, etc.
I stick with it because of my children, and also because I like the flexibility. I don't have to be up at 5:30 to get the kids up and ready for school, I don't have to fight traffic to get to work at 8:00. It is a trade-off. Sounds like you just need a break.
That would be an enormous amount of various dishes of food. sm
if 80 people come, that could be 30-40 bowls, platters, plates; probably not realistic.
Oh, my!. I HAVE been there, desk in kitchen while dishes pile up and so on.
The little ones, at least, from this distance are happy memories and much missed. It really does get a LOT easier, I promise, and sooner than you can imagine, up over your head in it all as you are. Keep taking lots of deep breaths.
Dishes once a week? My goal is to live life better than the day before.
Try to enrich my life, even if it's just a little extra prayer or a little thoughtful thing for someone who doesn't expect it. Everyday.
Yeah, it's usually not a problem - there are plenty of side dishes veggies can eat.
Anyway, I was just curious if any fellow veggies were out there:) Regardless of your persuasian (carnivore/herbivore lol) have a great Thanksgiving :)
What's your favorite food. Favorite in that you could only have one last meal what would it be?
Indulge me while I stare at computer screen waiting for Q work that isn't there.
I love spaghetti but only served with a great salad with olive oil and some garlic bread. Can't have pasta alone. And needless to say a glass of red wine. No dessert, just extra spaghetti.
Daughter is vegetarian. I cook a turkey and she hits the side dishes. (sm)
We do pretty well with this. I just make sure I have some of her favorites so she still feels like she is having a feast.
I saw a picture someone made of a "turkey" they had formed out of raw veggies. I think the basic form was one of those rounded shaped loaves of bread and the veggies were on toothpicks. the head and some tail feathers were made from construction paper. It seemed like an entertaining idea especially if you had small children around.
chicken pox
Poor child, I had the same; I couldn't swallow - even my saliva hurt going down.
As I recall, that lasted about 3-4 days.
Chicken Fat
http://www.clubcourtyard.com/ChickenFat.html
Whole chicken. sm.
I like to bake mine whole too. I put a full can of beer inside the cavity (up its butt sorta speaking), but then I cook it in one of those Reynold's cooking bags about 20 minutes per pound. It falls off the bone. Sometimes they have specials where I live where you can get them for only 29 and 39 cents a pound. I buy 3 or 4 then.
I have a chicken dog too :)
My dalmation is so afraid of storms. She tries to crawl under my desk when it thunders and just shakes. If I pet her for a while she will calm down. The other day we had a storm and I was doing dishes and she tried to crawl under my kitchen sink, knocking everything out. She also hates the vacuum and the hose. I don't know that I would give her medication. That may be more trying for her than the occasional storm. Maybe letting her in your office might help if you see it is going to storm. A few treats never hurt either!
Chicken Little
Yea. The sky is still there, but my pay/money is gone!!!!! Where'd it go??!
CHICKEN LITTLE

Chicken pox in the mouth
I'd be calling my doc asap with it being in her mouth. The home remedy I had to use was Maalox/Benadryl and doc added diluted Xylocaine to numb it. My dd had it on her uvula also. Made a concotion of yogurt with the above also and added Lysine to it to. That is after the doc had a look at her. Good luck but don't mess around.
Um, chicken, not chick.
chicken recipe
The recipe says 2 toss of garlic. Is it suppose to be 20 toes of garlic since you call this 20-garlic chicken? Thanks for your help.
20 garlic chicken. sm
At the risk of sounding dumb - are you supposed to use two whole actual things of garlic. Garlic has always confused me. The recipe sounds wonderful but two whole garlic or two segments of one garlic thingy? 
Chicken and Dumplings

How about grilled chicken?

Garlic Chicken
Thanks for posting this. This smells so wonderful.
I had gone to a Garlic Festival and they made this with pieces of chicken and added rice. Wrapped it in a tortilla. Walaaaa wonderful!!! You could smell it everywhere! Which is how i found this food booth.
Anyone eat chicken a la king?
Chicken a LA King Recipe
3 tablespoons butter
1 cup fresh sliced mushrooms
1/2 cup chopped green bell pepper
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
2 cups evaporated milk or half-and-half
1 1/2 cups chicken broth
3 cups diced cooked chicken
1/4 cup chopped pimiento
Melt butter in a medium saucepan. Add mushrooms and green pepper; cook for 5 minutes. Blend in flour, salt, and pepper. Continue stirring and cooking until smooth and bubbly. Gradually add milk and chicken broth, stirring constantly. Cook for 10 minutes, stirring frequently. If you'd like a thicker sauce, blend 2 tablespoons of cornstarch with 1/4 cup cold water; add to sauce, a little at a time, until desired thickness is reached. Cook for a few more minutes. Add chicken and pimiento; heat through. Serve on toast points or pastry shells or rice. Chicken a la King Recipe serves 6 to 8.
Never had anything but chicken livers and
n
Sometimes I do boneless chicken
breasts marinated in barbecue sauce. Just put them in on low and let them cook all day long. They come out so tender that they just fall apart!! Also, pork tenderloin is excellent in the crockpot. You can buy them pre-marinated at the grocery store or you can mix up your own concoction. Boneless chicken breast is also excellent if you use Newman's Own Balsamic Vinegrette salad dressing as a marinade. I know it may sound strange, but I guarantee you if you try it, you'll fall in love with it!
We all know she's really having fried chicken. LOL!

I can tell you how to make a brisket and chicken
that will fall apart, but not very good with these myself! :)
No, she only eats chicken... that died from old age... LOL
Hypocrite?!
Do you have any cans of chicken broth or
Just thinking you could cut his broth in your portion with one of these . . . maybe cook some rice and then add it in . . . the potatoes also may help some (love potatoes in anything, but thought they may already be in there).
