Hello!
Happy Monday!
So, do you ever have random songs just pop into your head? And, by random, I mean songs you don’t normally hear on the radio. Is that just me?
Well, this morning, out of nowhere – and I really can’t explain it because I spent time watching pre-season football this weekend, NOT children’s shows – came this doozy:
I know. I’m sorry. I should be ashamed of myself. One for the song bomb and two, because I subjected you to Barney!
I’m sorry. Really, I am.
If you only knew how much I am NOT a fan of Barney, you would understand my consternation. Ugh.
Moving on….it’s the only way…..
I love listening to music when I’m cooking or cleaning or just hanging around. I have a wide variety of tastes (see above) but lately, I’ve been reaching for these artists:
- 1. Amy Winehouse
- 2. Etta James
- 3. Ray LaMontagne
If you don’t know who Ray LaMontagne is, you are totally missing out.
- 4. Liz Longley
Same with Liz Longley. Check her stuff out. You won’t be sorry!
- 5. Duffy
It seems they’re always in my CD player.
Yes, I still have CDs. I’m old-fashioned. You don’t EVEN want me to tell you about the reel-to-reel player I have! Now, THAT’s old school.
Anyway, if I’m not playing one of those, I’m usually playing some standards or maybe some Ella Fitzgerald.
And, then, while relaxing in my kitchen, I make things like this:
Chutney Chicken One Pot! Click the photo to go to the recipe on my Facebook page!
Chutney Chicken One Pot.
Oh. So. Yummy.
Do you like my ginormous cast iron skillet?
Questions:
1. Do you cook with cast iron?
2. What are you listening to these days? I love suggestions!
3. Can you forgive me for the purple dinosaur?
