Life Right Now!
I've done pretty good with taking my vitamins daily and because of that my nails have really grown. I've discovered that I am not a long nail person. I like them cut just below the tip of the nail. I was letting them grow but I don't like the way I type or put on my contacts while my nails are long and it just seems neater to me.
I have a slight headache as well as tension in my shoulders. I need to get that worked out real quick like.
I've just spend the last 2 hours working on the menu for the next two weeks and the shopping list. This is the first time I've been so particular about it because I want to only buy what we need to remain on budget, $100. Here is the menu. The things in bold italics are what I need to buy for that recipe.
I wish that I could have made it to CreoleInDC's 41st Birthday party! It looks like they had a great time. Happy Birthday Chica!
I want to go to Denver, CO for our anniversary next year. We have not taken a vacation since 2002 when we went to New Orleans. Nope, going back home to Mississippi does not count as a vacation. I just hope that we don't miss my brother-in-law's graduation from pharmacy school. This will be his 2nd PhD. He such a fancy pants!
We have a backed up AC hose and there is water soaking our carpet in front of the unit. That location just happens to also be directly in front of our bedroom. Because of this issue have had turned off the A/C unit. It's actually quite comfortable right now....But this is Texas so who knows what it'll be like around 5pm.

Season your chicken to your liking. I used seasoning salt, pepper and salt.
Throw in the trinity...1 bell pepper, 1 celery rib and 1 small onion diced to your preference.
Add the content of a 10oz can of Cream of Mushroom with Roasted Garlic.
Cover with foil and cook for 1 hr & 15 minutes on 375 degrees.
Serve with rice or mashed potatoes and enjoy!

Back in the Day...Wednesday!
A Different World was the show that made me love the thought of going to college. I couldn't wait and I also think that it's the reason why I wanted to attend an HBCU. I used to watch this show and couldn't wait until next Thursday to where I could see it again. Thank God for syndication and I can see it just about everyday now.
I wanted to be Whitley as well as Freddie. Honestly, I am a little bit of both. I can be very girlie when I want to be but I am always this earthy, thinking outside the box and wish I lived up in the mountains with a garden kind of girl. Very polar opposites but that is the dynamic that is me.
I loved the reunion show that Nick-At-Nite did but it's no longer available on the website to watch, BOOOOO! How beautiful is Cree Summer...That's another LARGE post that's coming. ME.LOVES.HER!
Can we please get another show on television that shows educated and decent black folk? Can our kids see that there is more to being black that The Housewives of Atlanta (how many of them are actually wives) and The Wire? We have got to do better. Where is the next Bill Cosby for television?
