"mission day"

[Kitchen Witch]

Well - you all know that I am an "adopted gram" to the 2 most beautiful babies in the world!

Today I was "gram on a mission!"

Thanks to McD's (my oh so favorite place - COUGH COUGH - you've all read my continuing saga!) and the makers of Shrek - I went looking for "Gingy". I went to 5 different McD's in 3 different counties (like gas her is cheap - DUH!) and I was only able to find ONE. grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

So since I am so pooped out from today that I need to make something simple, easy and fast. And since we have a "fall" day today (temp is down 30 degrees from yesterday) I don't mind using the oven.

I have leftover chicken in the freezer which I diced. Boiled some medium shells, added steamed sliced carrots, frozen corn and frozen peas; added cream of chicken soup; transferred to baking dish and topped with diced bread slices; drizzled with melted butter. Baked until heated through.

I picked up some boneless skinless chicken breasts in my travels today - those I will skillet fry in olive oil, season, and then "sauce" with cream of chicken soup.

Made some chocolate cookies (a new recipe for something I have been thinking about that I just came up with - I'll post later.)

Hot tea.
