New verse:

Upon the hearth the fire is red, Beneath the roof there is a bed; But not yet weary are our feet, Still round the corner we may meet A sudden tree or standing stone That none have seen but we alone. Tree and flower and leaf and grass, Let them pass! Let them pass! Hill and water under sky, Pass them by! Pass them by!

Still round the corner there may wait A new road or a secret gate, And though we pass them by today, Tomorrow we may come this way And take the hidden paths that run Towards the Moon or to the Sun. Apple, thorn, and nut and sloe, Let them go! Let them go! Sand and stone and pool and dell, Fare you well! Fare you well!

Home is behind, the world ahead, And there are many paths to tread Through shadows to the edge of night, Until the stars are all alight. Then world behind and home ahead, We’ll wander back to home and bed. Mist and twilight, cloud and shade, Away shall fade! Away shall fade! Fire and lamp, and meat and bread, And then to bed! And then to bed!

Now you can all blame Hair for bringing me on board! *laughing*

Once a month is VEY nice! Plan it around whatever special event you have in that particular month and you've got a winner, 2J!

I love to take chicken, fry it in a little oil, chop it up and serve it on tortillas with shredded cheddar, black beans and slices of avacado...and picante sauce to taste.

Thanks bear! - Our archivist of mathoms and important things!

[RMDupree]

LOL! I guess it's obvious who is the lazier one by our posts! HAHAHAHAHA!!!

[2Jedismom]

The jedis like these chicken fajita things too, but just with the cheese and chicken. It's simple, it's quick and it's easy to just pick up and eat.

[2Jedismom]

ROFLOL!!!!

Thanks for the suggestions. I may just see if I'm "inspired" at the grocery store. Nana would have cooked if I'd planned ahead.

[RMDupree]

I truly admire you, sis. I just don't want to deal with chopping and slicing and all that jazz, unless it's for more than just me and the kids.

Grab raw chicken, stick it in a bag, shake, bake and serve. If you're lucky I'll fix some of those instant taters and open a can of corn. *laughing*

Hmmmm...no wonder I'm still alone.....

Grab raw chicken, stick it in a bag, shake, bake and serve.

You forgot the most important part. If you forget to take it out of the bag...serve it as "glazed chicken."

Well, I will admit...Steve is usually right there helping and he does help clean up afterward too...so I can't take all the credit.

But by myself, (like when Steve is in school), I freqently open cans too!! Or cook TV dinners or frozen pizzas...

It's not the cooking I hate, mind you...it's the CLEANUP!

If you want to go fancy one night instead of easy tacos make a mexican lasagna. Layer taco meat, cheese and a can of diced tomatos in cooked lasagna noodles, pour a can of enchilada sauce on top and then some more cheese. Bake 30-35 min. at 375.

You can add other stuff to it(corn, beans, onions, etc.) if you want to be Bon Appetite!

I like chicken fajitas too, but my recipe is a little different... I use shredded cheese, sliced black olive, chopped tomato, shredded lettuce, Pace picante sauce and some sour cream as toppings. Rose takes the same ingredients but turns it into a salad by going without the tortillas and just mixing it all up in a medium bowl.

[2Jedismom]

Mmmm!!

Ok, I'm outta here...going over to my mom's to watch the news for a while.

See you all later.

I'd just order a pizza...

[ecurbh]

I make my fajitas vey simple... Marinate the meat in a McCormick seasoning mix packet, then cook lots of peppers and onions with the meat, serve on tortillas with cheese and choice of toppings.

In fact, that is the plan for dinner tonight.

I'd just order a pizza...

And that is why I am the designated cook, honey! ~smooch~

[Corin Stormhands]

Did that Saturday night. And we ate out yesterday. Our main local grocery store does great fried chicken. We did that too. I did manage to cook dinner three nights. And we've done all the lunches and breakfasts at home.

Have you figured out what my purpose is yet? ;~D
