It's Important to Count your Stitches!

Man, I was so proud of my self when I finally got this close to finished :) But Nooooo.... Big Baby comes in and is all like:

"hahaha! What's this?"

I'm all like:

And Big Baby's all

"Who took a Bite out of it?" Hahahahahaha!

Yeah well....

Zesty Italian Dressing Chicken


I always make this when I feel really lazy about making dinner.  It's so easy:
Big Baby is stabbing my Potato!

Dump 1cup Zesty Italian Dressing into a big pan over medium heat.
Add 2-3 Tbsp of Honey
Plus 1-2 Tbsp of Vinegar ( I use AppleCider Vinegar cuz that's what I have or you could add lemon juice, something to add some Zestyerness!)

Yeah, Big Baby hates when I make any kind of "naked" chicken, but I think he really liked the potatoes!

And just cook it down.... Always make sure your chicken is cooked through though...I have had that happen... Surprise! Raw Chicken! Oh man! Not Good!

But here's something Good: I Joined a Knit-A-Long! Sounds like so much Fun! And I enlisted my mom and my DD!

How would you like your steak?

MMMmmmK.... So Big Baby decides we are going to BBQ some steaks. Sound delicious doesn't it?

So of course I go in the kitchen and start to get them marinated.

1 cup Soy Sauce
3/4 cup Vinegar
1 to 1.5 tsp of Pepper
and
1/2 tsp of Garlic Powder


Cover with plastic wrap and let soak for at least 2 or more hours!
So far so good....

Except that Big Baby only knows ONE way to cook them on the BBQ.  WELL DONE!
