Recipe Time: Sundried Tomato Stuffed Chicken

So I have a new recipe to share, that was seriously delicious, elegant, and savory. I will definitely be making it again! (but probably making a little change...which I will explain later) The Grocery List - Boneless, skinless chicken breasts - Sundried tomatoes (there are different varieties of these. You can buy the ones in oil in the jar - that's I opted to buy the plain, dried tomatoes at the farmers market I shop at!) - Feta Cheese ("President" brand makes a Fat Free Feta -- wahoo!) - Olive Oil -Balsalmic or Red Wine vinegar (whichever you fancy, in my opinion..I chose Red-Wine) - Lemon juice & zest -Fresh Basil - Oregano - Mint Leaves (this is probably optional, but I threw them in since they're in my garden) - S & P - Crushed Red Pepper Instructions (I'm going to apologize ahead of tijme on my lack of measurements. I made this up, so I did the "throw a little in, do a few shakes method") Place chicken breasts between 2...

Things that make my go "hm.."

Hm... We water our grass, vegetables, & flowers 4 times/day for 10 minutes. (automated sprinkler system). And things still seem to appear dry at times, yet I have to weed the garden 2 times/week. The weeds appear strong & green as can be! Hm... We have this rooster-sounding bird that "cock-a-doodle-doo's" every morning. Except it's not when the sun comes up. He chimes in around 4:30, and does it repetitively. And then he returns in the late afternoon just to remind us he's still around. Hm... How do I operate Ryan's shot gun he uses for bird hunting...? Hm... Swimming suit shopping was so fun and exciting when I was a young, hipster, college chick. Now it's just annoying. Hm... Is anyone else following American Idol this year? I am very disappointed that it is down to two country folk. Anyone can get a country career. I wanted my jazzy, blues-singing, talented Hailey to win. Hm... Why do I even watch that silly show? Hm.. (after...

Ten on Tuesday!

Happy Tuesday, everyone! As I write this post on my Monday evening...I'm feeling cynical. The past 2 days at work have made me grumpy. So let's just move on. Isn't it exciting that the world didn't end? I thought I'd never do a Ten On Tuesday again. 1. Have you ever used Craigslist? Yes. My husband uses it a lot whenever we can't go to the UA football games that we have season tickets for. We also get lots of bites! We also found the house we're currently renting on Craig's list! 2. Can you sew? I learned how to sew. Let's end the conversation there. I would do it for 20 minutes and go absolutely loca! However, I haven't tried sewing since I was about 11 years old. When something needs patching, or buttons need sewing around our house? My husband does it! 3. Do you pour syrup on your pancakes or dip your pancakes in the syrup? I don't eat pancakes. Never really liked them. And now I'm Gluten free. I'm a good person to...
