Winner Winner Chicken Dinner

By -

Major Jennifer you have won the beautiful Nostepinne from Craftiness.etsy.com. David Lindquist makes beautiful yarn winders. I LOVED your answer to simplifying a complex world.....you have such a good outlook when little inconveniences like losing the electric power, occur.



Although I already have cast on in Happy Feet, my next pair of socks, I think I need some yellow right now. This new yarn is begging me to change my monogoknit ways and cast one today.

Now for the Winner Winner Chicken Dinner information:

We love to grill chicken breasts after they have marinated in ITalian Salad dressing for a bit.
Then we add grilled onions to the breasts while on the grill, after adding our favorite bbq sauce (I'm a KC Masterpiece fan, my men in the house like DAVE's Bbq in ZESTY) . Then we top it with a slice of Colby cheese, and let it melt. Put these cheeseburgers in disguise onto a Hawaiian or pretzel bun and enjoy. Oh are they good! The Claim Company in Chicago made these years ago and we copied their basic idea. We even make these for guests and they are a huge hit.

There's my winner winner Chicken dinner. Do you have one too?

Congrats to Major Knitter! Beautiful yarn too.

I'm not a fan of chicken, so no great recipes here.

I haven't had KFC for a loooong time, but I like their original recipe the best. Now, I prefer roasted chicken, cubed on a green salad.

Beautiful yarn winder! Congrats Jennifer!

Winner chicken for me is when I poach boneless chicken breasts in water, salt, pepper and a little orange zest the day before, then pull it apart and throw it into the crockpot with all things vegetable. Add some broth kept from the simmering pan the day before, and a cup of brown rice just before eating and we have a super soup!! Dinner for as many as want to drop by and I didn't even have to be home.

Congrats to Jennifer! I can't think of a nicer winner!

Our go-to chicken --- take boneless, skinless breast and sprinkle with taco seasoning. Top with salsa (your choice of heat level). Bake at 350 for 45 minutes. Top with cheese and sour cream --- Taco Chicken!

I tell you what, you don't check on the blogs a couple of days and all kinds of things happen. lol
My newest favorite chicken (and my husband's) is to take a whole bird, cut up a lemon and an onion. Shove the pieces into the cavity with whatever fresh herbs (preferably rosemary/sage) I have, set it in a pan in the oven for about 1 1/2 hours. Yes, I should sprinkle salt and pepper in the cavity before I put in the lemon and onion but I usually realize it after the pieces are in. It is dirt easy and my husband says it tastes as good or better than the rotisere birds we had been buying. And time wsis it is too easy also. I like dinners that let me sit and do something else like knit, read, spin, .... Helen

I didn't even know winders were available on etsy. Though I shouldn't be surprised.

The nearly Thousandth post Contest

(just another baby legging in the image. Using my socks yarns a little differently) I think that blogger may not have correctly counted all the posts I've written. I've been posting since 2004 so I guess it is possible. I'm not going to go back and count them all. It says this is post 987. So we'll go with it. Im having a little contest for the milestone, but I have had writer's block since I decided on the 1000th post contest. So to take the pressure off, we are just going to do this now. :) I get crazy with pressure around events of all kinds. I just do. To enter: Please please please only leave a comment about this post on this post. Im much too flakey to search around differnt posts, afterall there are nearly a thousand (did I mention that number already? sorry....) Leave a comment telling me anything about Lace. If you dn't know anything about Lace, ask someone and share their knowledge. Do tell us who gave you this lace advice, to make it f...

Every Once in a While I Might Post

 Is that vague enough for you?  It has been a too busy complicated Spring.  I had no energy to blog.  All is well now, so I can share some things with you:   1. When I shoot photos of the moon I think of Dear Teresa.  Gone too soon. She took fabulous moon pictures.  2. I did not see one shooting star last night.  I only got up for a few moments around 3 a.m.  The local weather guy said he saw a few quick faint ones.   3. How can I can have one grown child in Oklahoma under flood watch, and One Child in Mexico under hurricane watch?  On the same day.  Tis true.  4. What have I knitted lately?  I am pretty sure I've ripped more than I've knit.  I ripped out a shawl that I was making up.  It was cotton and pretty.  I need to follow a pattern.  5. I was trying to make socks and decided to make mittens instead.  I haven't worked a thumb in a long time.  I may have to frog it too.  So I ha...

Dear buddy nurse and spay neuter pal Linda, came to visit yesterday.  We knitted. We laughed.  We shared books we are reading. She Showed me her scarf.  It looks like a shawl but it is a scarf. Here is her yarn choice. And the( OUCH) price.   It makes her happy to knit.  If Linda's happy I'm happy.  I dont' know the pattern and neither does she.  Her dog literally shredded her pattern.  She was at a point where she had memorized the easy part and she's nearly finished.  So there you go, anyone know the pattern? You are all so sweet about the move and the house. This morning I got my cuppa joe and headed to the porch to write you.  In the distance, my nearest neighbor, whom I can see through some trees.... well one of their teens came out, stretched, peed on their lawn casually, and then laid in his hammock for 5 minutes.  I'm sure he's not the first boy to do this.  I'm not even sure he's the...
