Hello and good day...and if it is not...I am going to do my best to make it that way! To wallow, nag, argue, and hold grudges is a waste of time! I have learned that life is way too short for this.

Saturday afternoons are fun around this household. It is a day that both my husband and I don't go to work. Today is one of those days. Big Al cleaning tank day, we are cooking a chicken in the oven which will warm the house up this afternoon. We always rub Carothers' Olive Oil all over the chicken before spicing it up with salt and pepper and other yummy spices. It tenderizes, and keeps the chicken so moist. Also doing the mashed potato thing, I will do a small baked (dieting!) and put my olive oil on it instead of butter...calories? About the same but so much healthier and 'dietwise'. Then Brian said to me while we were shopping, "What about a vegetable?" Wow....usually we both are so busy with our lives/schedules we just do not eat a balanced meal! So broccoli  steamed it is - looking forward to dinner and a good movie and curling up with the man I love so much.

Here is a good recipe or two I would like to share with you:
