My best friend used to tell me, “Toni show some class and not your @$$…” And I must say some of those little girls get down right nasty in their comments! They are not showing class but their @$$!!! And there’s no need for all of that!! It’s a recipe!! Use it or lose it! It’s only a recipe!! Smile! Keep up the great work and all of the great responses!!! Us working girls want and LOVE THE SHORT CUTS!! If it taste good, who cares you didn’t put 2 days in the prep???!!!! Hello???!!!

  2. Try some Old Bay seasoning instead of the dill. A local seafood resaurant does this with their new potatoes and they are awesome.

  3. It’s so hard letting them go. ~sigh~ I see lots of recipes for after school treats coming our way. yum…he he he. when my two were in school, I would spend lots of time getting things ready for when they came home. lol…I didn’t want to have to do anything when they walked in the door but hug them and talk about their day. We all know how you feel, it’s hard but you get better at not wanting to run out the door and peek in the classroom window. Go easy, ~giving Christy a great big hug~

  4. These look soooo very yummy! And my baby girl starts school this year too. 🙁 I am very excited for her to start a new chapter in her life and making new memories of her own, but I am not so sure that I am ready for this new chapter in MY life! Yes, I am being selfish and I want to keep her little and with me always! But I know that I just can’t do that!

    I have a wonderful poem that I would really really LOVE to share with you so if it would be alright I will email it to you! But get a tissue ready! 😉

  5. Dear Christy,
    If the silence gets to ya, turn on a good radio station or the TV on low, it makes the house seem like there is someone with you. And remember, there really is.
    Thanks for all your helpful hints and recipes
