Easy Breezy

My dear husband has a little problem...he often rehearses conversations in his mind but ACTUALLY believes they were verbalized at one point or another. I think it's just having a brain so full that some of the gray matter has leaked out somewhere. This past weekend the gray matter was found...a bit late for my comfort.

I am trying to clean out cupboards and eat what we have. Some of it is financial reason but most is organizational reason. In other words, grocery shopping is "needs" vs. "wants". I actually like to do this from time to time...I find the creativity of making "rock soup" enjoyable...until my husband announces "don't forget we have missionaries coming". By the look on my face he immediately says "I told you" ...moving along...we realized it was a "lack of gray matter moment"! I panic a bit because there is simply no time to get to a store! Ah ha! 3 little ingredients save the day!

Frozen Chicken breasts
BBQ sauce
Can of pineapple chunks
~and of course my best friend-The Crockpot!

I threw it all in that morning and enjoyed Hawaiian chicken over white rice...and thankfully I had salad already (we don't go long in our house without salad)

It was an enjoyable day and the missionary wife was so excited to have only 3 ingredients to tend with on their new mission field! God used it and I kept my sanity!
