So last night, i made chicken and dumplings! thanks 2 Claires recipe it came out delish! B wasnt feeling well and the day was kinda gray sooo chicken and dumplings it was!!
ill post the recipe just how it was given 2 me!


hey boo!
heres my recipe for chicken n dumplins
boil a big pot of water with celery, onion, garlic, and chicken broth.
add chicken breasts with the bone and skin. let that boil for about 1 and a half hours. take the chicken out and bone them. put back in the water. make the dumplins(follow the recipe on the bisquick box, except i usually roll small balls of the ingredients and put them in the water at the same time so they stay together better) lower the temperature on the stove and i usually only boil the dumplins for 5 minutes uncovered and then 5 minutes covered!
let me know how it turns out!


Thursday i have my 2nd visitor and it is...........! Hannah Wrenn! i am sooo every excited! i will be posting pics and updating yall and how it was after she leaves!!


Also i have to post one more thing. B sends out this weekly email abt dancing w/ the stars! and this was in once of her paragraphs! i LIT cried!! i was laughing so hard!! its freakin hilarious! 

"Jennifer...Derek's choreography is "Dank"!!  What the hell does that mean you ask? Well, have a 25 year old move in with you and you will know that it means Awesome, A-mazing, Da bomb or just plain old Good. Before i took  my class in "25 year old Lingo 101" i would have never heard that word. And if i had, i would have thought it to be a negative expression...a mix between Dumb (as in stupid) and Stank (as in past tense of Stink) meaning quite simply, Stupid Stink. Now a mere couple of months into my course, i am using it in a sentence in it's proper form! Plus, "Dumb" actually means funny or something like that, kind of like how "Bad" sometimes means "Good".  I'm quite proud. Feel free to use it these words in your own world, if you dare. "

Love yall!!!! P

Well, i was feeling a little homesick sooo we decided to throw a Costarican party, which included the Whitneys, their friends Cam and Shannon and me. I cooked arroz, pollo, platano maduro y ensaladas, to drink we had coronas and margaritas, a little wine as well and of course we decorated jaja! we ended the night w/ a little salsa dancing! i mean it was a Costarican party!

These are their friends Cam and Shannon! lucky them they got 2 participate jajaja!

Then i went 2 raleigh 4 a week, well really 10 days....i got to see fam and friends and catch up! Probably not the best idea after only being gone for 3 weeks! i LOVE raleigh and miss it!

The good news is i really like PHZ now! the weather has gotten cooler, its only been in the 90's, ive gotten plugged into a church and BS where ive met great ppl! and they have done such an amazing job @ including me in their lives!
