I am tired. We are coming up on the end of September and I am exhausted already. How am I going to make it to June? We had my son’s annual Individualized Education Plan (IEP) meeting this week. I was a bit concerned about it as they are going to want to dismiss him from…

Old Fashioned Butter Chicken
It was a crazy, busy weekend this week so there were no weekend posts like usual. I have only missed posting 6 days in the last 5 weeks. There was a Feis at the Michigan Irish Festival this weekend and on Sunday we went to see the National Touring Company of Wicked. Why have I…
Chicken Drumsticks and Vegetables
Even with playing this game of making a different dish every weeknight for my family, for almost two years now, I try to save money on my grocery bills. Drumsticks this week were $.49 a pound. Drumsticks are not my favorite choice in meat but the kids love them and they can be made in…
Chicken Caesar Salad
So, school has started and we begin the balance of lessons, classes and homework. Dinner once again needs to be thought out and planned ahead of time. Yes, I plan my meals a month at a time but you really can do it with just a week worth of meals if you want. If you…
Crispy Baked Garlic Parmesan Chicken Wings
After spending the weekend in Waukesha, Wisconsin at the Wisconsin Highland Games Festival for two Irish Feis (dance competitions) we are tired. These were small competitions but it was really hot the first day and we were so glad we were inside most of the day. Even then the leaves are changing. Cooler night temperatures….
Chicken and Rice with Roasted Vegetables
I am still loving our Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) share each week. We have been getting lots of great organic produce like summer squash, zucchini, tomatoes, garlic and blueberries each week. Every Wednesday we get a new box of produce and I had a few leftover items I wanted to use before the new box…
Buffalo Chicken Quesadillas
Frugal. I love that word. I choose to spend my money on certain things and not on others. We love our vacations and having our children take a wide variety of classes and lessons. They are not free. So, I choose to not have new furniture, carpeting or the most up-to-date seasonal clothing. It’s my…
Slow Cooker Roasted Chicken
There was a television show when I was a child that I would watch in the afternoon after school. It was called “Get Smart.” There was a bumbling agent, Maxwell Smart or 86, who battled KAOS with Agent 99. He was always getting himself into situations that he needed saving from and one of his…
Chicken Spiedies

These are my own thoughts and opinions and should be read as such. Spiedies are a sandwich from the Binghamton area of New York. Though the sandwiches are…
Grilled Chicken with Garlic Cheese Sauce
Well, our air conditioner is officially dead. We have some people coming towards the end of this week to give us quotes on a new one. We are all still sleeping in one room despite it being a bit cooler during the days. Unfortunately there are no trees around our house for natural cooling. We…
Fried Rice with Chicken and Broccoli
Yesterday was an interesting day. Part of my son’s Autism is that he is unaware of what is happening with his body. He has trouble with telling when he is in other’s personal space, he can be sick and not know it or he can seriously hurt himself and not know it. He told me…
Tuscan Garlic Chicken
We are slowly getting back into the groove of summer. Yesterday was too hot and humid to head to the beach though. There was always the threat of a thunderstorm. Those dark looming clouds don’t make me want to spend hours at the beach. So, instead we tried to catch up on a few things…
