Moving Forward


Well, it is December 26th.  The Christmas holiday is over for another year.  I hope you had a blessed one!  I will post our Christmas photos in the next few days.

Are you the type of person that likes to leave up the Christmas decor until after New Years?  I will probably switch out the rest of the decor in the house and get that put away.  And leave the tree up until New Years.  My girls would probably protest if I took it down!  I am ready to simplify for the New Year.

Eric and Autumn have today off work but Addie and Sierra will be working today.  No school this week for the girls - we are taking the week off for Christmas break.

It was kind of nice that the holidays fell on the weekend.  It feels right to have a fresh start on a Monday.  

Our weather is in the 50's today and rainy.  In fact, I do have a couple windows cracked this morning.  It was very warm and stuffy this morning.  It did not cool down inside overnight.  

I do need to get groceries for the week today.  It is my normal shopping day.  With having Addie home, I have to really plan my outings because we have two vehicles between three drivers!

There is much to think about as the new year approaches!  Looking forward to a new year in the Tastet house!

Happy 45th Birthday, Eric!

  Happy birthday to my husband, Eric!   He turns 45 today.  I am surprising him with tickets to a Miami Dolphins game in Miami.  I got him tickets one other time years ago when we lived in Reno.  We drove to Oakland to see the Dolphins play the Raiders.  I think this will be a great memory for him and a home game too! Happy birthday, babe!

Recipe: Chicken Parmesan

  Chicken Parmesan This is a delicious recipe from Magnolia Table: Volume 2. 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts  1/4 tsp. kosher salt 1/4 tsp. freshly ground black pepper 2 large eggs 1 tsp. garlic salt 1 sleeve (30-40) buttery crackers, crushed 4 oz. Parmesan cheese, grated (about 1 cup) 2 tbsp. olive oil 1 tsp. fresh lemon juice 1/2 cup mayo 1 tbsp. chopped fresh parsley (optional) Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. (I cut the chicken breasts in half to make thinner.).  Season with salt and pepper. In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs and garlic salt until combined.  In another bowl, combine the crackers and 1/2 cup of the Parmesan.
