:::ice ice baby:::

Last night we had a very relaxing night! On the 17th was Shelby's birthday and unfortunately we were unable to hang out at all on that day. So, we had Shelby and Tim over to our place for a nice dinner and a little hang out time! I made some Chicken Parmesan. It was really good and super easy! Here's the recipe:

3-4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 egg with a little water for the egg wash
Italian breadcrumbs
Mozzarella cheese slices
Shredded Mozzarella/Parmesan cheese if you have it
Traditional Spaghetti sauce
Spaghetti noodles (I use angel hair!!)

-Take each tenderized breast and put it in the egg wash. Then dip them in the bread crumbs until they are completely coated. Put them in the skilled with a little vegetable or olive oil. Fry them up so they are browned on each side. (3-4 minutes per side)

-When each breast is done, place them in a sprayed 9x13 pan

-Cover each breast with a slice of mozzarella (or 2 if you like them cheesey!!)

-Spread the spaghetti sauce over the pan- USE IT ALL!

-Sprinkle shredded mozzarella/little Parmesan cheese over the top (if you have it)

-Bake at 350 degrees for 30-35 minutes

-Cook your spaghetti noodles like normal and serve the chicken over top the noodles!

ENJOY!!!!!

So we had chicken parmesan, salad, and bread cooked over the grill. My dad can get loaves of bread (sort of like Panera Bread) at a store near his office! They are so yummy with butter, garlic pepper, a little garlic salt, and chunks of garlic! Toast them up over the grill and it is so delicious! Pretty simple meal but so yummy! I only make things that are easy and this is one of them!

After we ate we pretty much couldn't move because we were so full! We watched the newest episode of CSI! Taylor as usual was sleeping on the couch in all sorts of crazy positions! All of a sudden we heard a loud pop and bang! The dogs were barking (Brooklyn was over). We go to the door and this is what we see!!!




Okay!! Scary. All of this ice fell off of our roof! It may not look like much but it was seriously the loudest noise I've ever heard! The next picture shows how stinkin thick it was!!! That could have killed someone!



Luckily we had the grill out last night because that would have smashed our grill! Look at how far the overhang of the ice is!



We were so lucky that Taylor wasn't grilling under there when it decided to fall off the roof!



Overall, besides the ice falling, we had a great night with the Walsten's and we look forward to another hangout soon!! Happy Birthday Shelby!

My last blog noted that Ellie is in Heat... yup, and I said dog's wear diapers. Well we got one for Ellie. It is making life a whole lot easier but looks totally goofy! This is her little bum snuggled up underneath Taylor's sweatshirt this morning! =)



Too cute! I love my little hunnies!! =)

  2. An inside look into what my neighbors are doing. Glad the ice didn't kill you, the dog, the grill, or your car. Craziness out at Snowtown. (it's Mowtown in the summer). Thanks for the recipe. Heard you got a long term sub job...very cool.
