When we first got married I think we ate chicken practically every night. The odd time I’d throw in something really special like spaghetti or tacos, but for the most part I stuck to what I did best.
I thought I was providing variety because I’d make it in a dozen different ways – baked with different sauces, breaded, BBQ. I made chicken quesadillas, chicken stir-fry and chicken salads. Only problem was it was always chicken! Chicken, chicken, chicken!
My lovely husband ‘encouraged’ me to venture out into the land of Red Meat 🙂
Now, eight years later, I can happily report that yes we still eat chicken, but it is definitely in moderation.
I think back to those early days and can’t help but laugh at how clueless I was- not that I’m even close to a gourmet chef now. But I have grown to love being in the kitchen. I especially love trying out new recipes and getting everyones reactions.
Now…..what should I make for dinner tonight….hmmmm……chicken maybe??
Hahahaha! Just Kidding 🙂


I love Jesus, my guy Chris + our four. We seek joy. Homeschool. Adventure together. Mess up and start again.
