Chicken Packets

Note:  this recipe does NOT work if you make it the day of!  It works so much better if you have only thawed it for a few hours, or if you cook it the day of, make sure the mixture is not hot and runny before you add it to the rolls.  FYI.

2 cups cooked chicken chopped
1 3-ounce package cream cheese
1 tablespoon chopped chives
2 tablespoons milk
salt to taste
1/2 cup crushed, seasoned crouton crumbs
2 8-ounce packages refrigerated crescent rolls
1/2 stick margarine, melted

Combine chicken, cream cheese, chives, milk and salt.  Put in a ziploc bag and freeze until ready to use.  To prepare for serving, thaw chicken mixtures.  Preheat oven to 350.  Unroll crescent rolls and pinch together the triangle halves to make a rectangle. . .you will have 4 rectangles instead of 8 triangles.  Be sure and pinch the seams together well so nothing can seep out.

Melt butter.

Place chicken mixture into center of rectangle and then roll up making sure to pinch all openings so that nothing comes out.  Paint roll with butter then cover with bread crumbs.

Bake for 20 minutes.  Yummy!

We love this recipe! I got this one from the first time that we did cooking for the month together and I still make it all the time. (I don't make it ahead of time though, like the amazing planner that you are!) Wish we could come to your house for dinner.

They Made It!!!!

This is Kelly blogging for Jamie,and I just got off the phone with her. After traveling for 44 hours, they finally made it. I'm overjoyed by the news that they were able to MEET Ruk for the first time pretty soon after they arrived as well, and everything went GREAT!!! Jamie says he is VERY small... even smaller than Dax, and that he is probably a size 4... WOW! Jamie says that all his teeth are coming in and is not the toothless guy we have seen photos of. She also said that he was very sweet and affectionate with her, and that he called her mommy already. This is a great sign as it shows he is open and ready for a family!!! Jamie was told that all day long he was chatting away that he was going to meet his mommy today! Sniff, sniff!!! Hays and Ruk hit it off real well too and didn't have any of that awkward and shy first time to meet you syndrome. They played for over an hour, and Hays had a BALL with his rambunctious and playful brother, Ruk. Lots of hugging and kissing were...

A Little Bit Of News From The Land Of A Thousand Hills. . .

I heard from Tim, my POA, today. Here is what his email said: We had a brief meeting, superior nun and was busy but favorable to adoption. She is encouraged by your heart especially with a second adoption. We have rescheduled to meet Saturday morning to finalize choice of the child. I shared your preferences and they don't have any issue with it. They told me that I need to proceed carefully especially with regards to other kids staying at the orphanage who may not get the chance of being adopted. Hopefully, I'll be able to get a picture of the boy that you may adopt! So. . .I'm assuming that Saturday means tomorrow. I am a little nervous! I am actually a lot nervous, but am trying to minimize that feeling by reminding myself that God knows the perfect child for our family! I'll be praying today!!!!!

Recovering P31

What?  A recovering P31? Proverbs 31 describes the wife of noble character.  This wife gets up early and works hard all day long and isn't even tired when she finally retires from all of her work at night.  She is a servant to her husband and she makes him proud.  She is a fantastic mom and I'm sure, if there was Pinterest in the day, she would be the Pinterest-y-est of the moms.  She isn't afraid of hard work and she has the pantry stocked in the case of an emergency and she has her family ready for cold winters, famine and hard times.  She helps strangers and loved ones alike and she has her sights set beyond herself.  Her husband praises her and her children are grateful for her and call her blessed. Oh my gosh!  What a great lady!  I want to be like her!  So why am I a recovering P31 and why am I writing about it now when I'm not even a wife? (For starters, I think this kind of noble woman is a goal regardless of any woman's marital ...
