Father's Day

I just wanted to remind everyone that we still have a bunch of the pocket hunting knives left. They would make a great Father's Day gift. You can look here to see what they are. They make good birthday gifts too. If you are interested leave me a comment on this post. Father's Day is June 21 and it isn't too early to start thinking about it!

Chicken Salad Sandwich

I found this recipe because it seems like a summery type meal. I know it is chick food, but I love it and it is supposed to be just like the chicken salad at Arby's.

Ingredients:
1 (13 ounce) canned chicken, drained (I am going to use cooked chicken breasts)
1/2 apple, sliced and chopped small
1/4 cup shredded carrot (I'll probably omit this)
1/4-1/2 cup sliced celery
1/2 cup red grapes, sliced in half
1 cup fat-free mayonnaise or ranch dressing
1/2 cup chopped and toasted pecan
2-4 leaves lettuce
1 sliced cucumber
2-6 slices bread, for sandwiches

Combine first seven ingredients in medium size bowl, stirring until moist.
Serve on bread or toast with sliced cucumber and lettuce. I am using croissants.
Spread additional dressing or mayonnaise on bread as desired.

Picky Eaters

My kids do not like to eat anything unless it is deep fried or covered in sugar (syrup counts under this) or a combination of both. Tonight I was able to trick my daughter into trying tomato soup. I put it in an orange plastic cup with a straw. It's a trick I learned from a friend. I mention that the cup was orange because this way she could not see what it was. She tried it once and was mad about the trickery but soon realized she likes it. It was so nice to add another thing to the list of approved foods for her. She especially loved dipping her grilled cheese in it and then adding goldfish crackers.
