Red, White & Bleu Potato Salad

 It's been, what feels like, a long time since I had time to post anything.  I hope everyone is doing well. 

Ingredients:
2 lbs Red potatoes Diced
1 Ripe Tomato Diced
1/2 Cup Olive Oil
3 Tbsp White Vinegar
Fresh Chives
1 1/2 oz or more of Crumbled Bleu Cheese
Salt and pepper

Directions:
Boil Red potaoes in salted water for about 10 minutes.  Cook until still a little firm.  Drain, and cool.
In a bowl, whisk together the vinegar, salt, pepper and olive oil.  Add tomatoes and bleu cheese to the potatoes.  Pour vinegar mixture over top and stir. Serve, yum!

Roasted Whole Chicken with Lemon and Herbs

 All you need is a Whole Chicken, Olive Oil, Lemon Juice, and Famous Dave's Chicken and Pork Seasoning, or your favorite blend.

Rinse Chicken and pat dry. Mix and Spread the mixture above, over all of the surface. You can marinate it for a couple hours, but I didn't have the time and mine turned out sooo tender.

Oven to 450F degrees.  Roast for 20 minutes.  Do not put on foil.  You won't need it.  This high temperature seals in the juices. Then turn it to 375F degrees for 40 Minutes to an hour.  My chicken was about 3.5lbs. To test for doneness you can put in a thermometer or pull on a leg an see if it easily pulls away.  I did not stuff my chicken so, if you do, please do not follow the cooking times, as it will take your bird longer.

Most assuredly an awesome chicken dinner.  We ate the chicken breast, and it was fork tender.  Enjoy!

Pacing...where's my chicken!

Number Puzzle Redo with Modpodge

 I love these things. I can't explain why.

The wooden number puzzle had some wear to it.  I saw this as an opportunity to make them even more colorful.  My daughter loves these too, though she's still learning you can do more than just take the numbers off and spread them throughout the living room.

With some Modpodge, and scrapbook paper, we got this:

 Did I mention a lot of cutting! shew!

I got the paper for $0.10 cents at Joann Fabrics.

 What do you think?
