This morning before class I showed some Walk Off The Earth videos to my classmates, and then we went downstairs and turned on the radio and a Walk Off The Earth song came on! I had a driving lesson later, and it went pretty well. I only nearly got into an accident a couple of times. Iā€™m drinking a Dr Pepper now. My cold seems to be subsiding somewhat. ---

[QUOTE=swampbear] No flies on this roofinā€™ company! Six guys up there roofinā€™ away. [/QUOTE] I think roofing crews are a force of nature. Aim them at a roof and donā€™t get in their way! Time to play Recipe Roulette to see what I want to do with a couple swai fillets for dinner. Iā€™ll probably fall to the default of baking them with a bit of lemon pepper. Easy-peasy, lemon squeezy. ---

Sah-dog left a bisket on the floor and a little mouse just crept in and tried to carry it off. He kept dropping it because itā€™s too big for him to carry. So cute to watch him trying to sneak off with it. I want to kill the little sucker. Every time we think the mice are gone another one shows up. ---

**$2.99** youā€™re too late this time but ifā€™n you ever do wander down to south Jawja (I guess thatā€™d be kinda over to south Jawja for you however) I promise you homemade burgers and fries. They were teh nummiest! I was grillinā€™ burgers and makinā€™ fries at the same time out on the back porch. I could irk at Booger King! šŸ˜ƒ The roofers have roofed and gone. Itā€™s amazingly cleaned up out there to boot. So far Iā€™ve only found one roofinā€™ nail in the driveway. :dubious: I have walked up and down the driveway three times. Thatā€™s the big place I worry about findinā€™ a nail. I tend to buy tires that can find any roofinā€™ nails within a ten mile radius of wherever I am. **Spidey** itā€™s a new _red_ tarp. Remember Iā€™m gay (WHAT??? Iā€™M GAY???) so my tarp must be f-_aaaaaa_-bu- **lous**! šŸ˜› ---

If Sah-Dog is anything like Zelda was, all heā€™s doing is looking at the mouse and then back at you. ā€œMouse. Thereā€™s a mouse there. Itā€™s a mouse.ā€ Stir-fry for supper. Dessert shall be iced mocha coffee. Soon it shall be crochet time. I need to get this blanket done if Iā€™m ever going to give it to SpazDad. ---

**Midget** heā€™s a breed called an OriPei, a cross between a pug and a SharPei. **Flytrap** I donā€™t care if he needs to make a living, he just needs to make it elsewhere. He (or she) is a brazen little cuss, comes right out in the daylight and all. \*\*Spaz \*\* if Sah-dog could be bothered to stop snoring and open an eye he might see the mouse. ---

I was just outside and found two more roofinā€™ nails. I swear the dang things must spontaneously generate! Both of ā€˜em were in the driveway. The same driveway I walked up and down and up and down and up and down earlier in search of roofinā€™ nails. GEEZ! ---

My mom would sew something, clean up, and then the next morning my dad would step on every pin she missed. My dehumidifierā€™s fixed. I jiggled something and now itā€™s working again. Mechanical skills! ---

Now you know where baby roofing nails come from. Your driveway is now a nail nursery. Dinner was baked feesh plus rice and caprese salad. Yummy! Dessert will be watermelon. Tomorrowā€™s dinner shall be home-made pizza. None of that bobolink stuff either. DH picked up pizza dough from an actual pizzeria. ---

[QUOTE=Seanette] I have ingredients I want to combine, but searching recipe sites isnā€™t helping. The ingredients: chicken breast, cream of mushroom/chicken soup (I have both in stock), rice, cheese. Anyone got a good recipe using these? [/QUOTE] One of my favorites: Two cans cream of whatever, one cup white rice, one cup water. Mix in a 9x9 casserole. Lay chicken on top and season, then bake at 350 for one and a quarter hours. This easily doubles using a 9x13 pan. Note on the riceā€¦ Use regular white rice. Not instant and not calrose (The stuff I normally use in a rice cooker doesnā€™t cook right in this recipe) If the breasts are boneless, check how things are doing after an hour. I normally use bone-in thighs or leg quarters.
