I'm BAAAACK and I'm Here to Staaaaay

I feel like I've been so out of touch, lately. No pop culture updates, no memes, no TV. I've been listening to big band, cross stitching, cooking and reading. It's been awful. I've been Facebooking through my Smartphone. It's so primitive.

Ha! In reality, it was actually kind of fun. I finished "Fifty Shades of Grey." The writing is terrible but that isn't stopping me from reading the second part. I am almost finished with my cross stitching and I have had more time to experiment with more recipes. I missed all of you terribly though and I missed sharing my recipes with you.

I also have a new job. I love it! The people are great, the hours are good and the pay is fantastic. I'm involved in a potluck lunch going on this Friday. I wasn't sure what to cook, but I settled on Chicken Tortilla Soup. It's a family favorite and I'm sure everyone will love it. Tonight though, I'm making Bourbon Chicken. Who doesn't enjoy a little booze with their poultry?

I know this entry is a little shorter than the others and kind of all over the place. Promise that I'll get back on track, lovelies. Just stick with me.

As for the Bourbon Chicken, it tastes nothing like the one from Golden Corral. I really want that recipe and I can't find it. I did find this one though and it's amazingly delicious and super simple. Sorry, no picture this time.
