A few months ago I discovered this recipe website. I have tried a few of the crockpot recipes there. A vast majority of the recipes sound tasty. I think I utilized my crockpot more last month than I did in the first 5 years I had the thing. Anyway, go and browse the recipes. I am always looking for new ways to cook old favorites like chicken and fish. Anyway, if you know of any good websites feel free to comment and let me know or heck just comment on some of your favorite recipes. My hubby and I are not too picky.

I may have posted this before, but I figured that I needed to counterbalance my 10% Yankee from the other quiz. You Know You're From Alabama When... You have a party or a barbeque whenever Alabama plays Auburn in football. You go to Gulf Shores every summer. You call the Atlanta Braves baseball team "us" like they're actually from Alabama. You would much rather visit Florida than California. You don't "take", you "carry" or "tote"... as in "You want me to carry you down to the 7-11?" A soft drink isn't soda, cola, or pop, it's Coke. You call it a "buggy" and not a shopping cart. You've said "fixin' to," "might could," or "usetacould" during the last week. Someone you know has used a football schedule to plan their wedding date. You know the meaning of the phrase "Fobbed again." You can properly pronounce Eufaula, Opelika, Bayou La Batre, and Oneonta. The Tall...

I found this little link surfing the web. It is kind of cheesy, but kind of cute too. I just had to share it with the small world that reads this blog. I know that posting lately has been few and far between. With the hours that he has been working and my hours not enough in the day to get dinner on the table before he has to leave to go to work. Anyway, after tonight I think that things will get back to as normal as possible in this house.

This week has been one for accidents. Thursday night I was coming into the house with dinner I turned to close the garage door and twisted my right knee. It has hurt like crazy since then. Tonight Art had gone to work and I got up from the sofa to feed the cat. I started to stand up and my foot was asleep. I noticed this morning that my ankle was swollen. I did not think much about it. Anyway, as I stood up to walk to the kitchen I heard a popping sound and next thing I know I was in the floor on my ass. I heard that same popping noise when I twisted my knee the other day. The older I get the worse I become about spraining and twisting things. I should mention it was also my right ankle that I sprained. I know it is sprained because I can walk on it. It hurts like the dickens. As far back as I can remember I have had broken toes and sprained ankles. Anyway, I have been sitting on the sofa with ice on my ankle and it is still bruised and swollen. I think I sat in the floor for a good 5...
