Have you noticed that Starbucks is now serving Petites???  Well, this past weekend they were giving them away free with a coffee.   So of course Jennie and I had to walk over and get ourselves one...


This is the salted carmel and it was lovely!! Sweet and salty together... melt my heart...

Where is Doc????

There is at least one habit that Preston has picked up from Doc and this is one of them...



Do you notice it, the ONE piece of food that he pulled out of his bowl and put on my bedroom floor.  Yeah, Doc loves to do that but I haven't ever seen Preston do it before. That is before now...

Turkey Tomatillo Chili

Last year at work we had a chili cook off and one was the clear winner.  Luckily they emailed out the recipes and of course I had to make it.  Well, not exactly the same way the recipe called for.  Here is my version:

Turkey Tomatillo Chili

1 package ground turkey, usually about a pound and a third
1 can fire roasted chopped tomatoes
1 can Rotel original (which is chopped tomatoes with green chilies, there's also a mild version)
1 can tomato sauce
1 can diced tomatoes
2 cans black beans drained and rinsed
2 cans corn drained
1 head cabbage, chopped
1 carton sliced mushrooms
1 packet of white chicken chili seasoning
  • Brown the turkey in separate pan in a little oil, strain in colander and run very hot water over.
  • Add to all above ingredients in crock pot.
  • Cook on low for as many hours as needed (I put it all together before I went to work in the A.M.).

Don't cook in with the rest, but before you serve, stir in:
1 large jar salsa verde (which is tomatillo, cilantro.)
2 or more fresh tomatillos, chopped

But then, of course, heat it enough to serve after you pour those in.


Have cilantro, avocado, sprouts our whatever you would like to add in at the end.  Jennie and I have been eating on this for days and love it.

Behind the curtain...

What do you do if the dryers in the building don't work well and you don't have a drying rack???


Use the shower rod!! Notice the shower curtain sitting on a ball on the floor...

My current favorite song...

This was sung on Sunday at church and I loved it.  I tried to find the exact same version as what they did on stage at Buckhead Church but couldn't find it.  So, the original will have to do.  If I ever do find the BC version I'll quickly upload it!



PS.  The original rocks too!
