Just what is Family

I saw this on a friends page and just had to share.

Sometimes you have to "think outside the box" to find the answers.

Other times it just "smacks you in the face" when you stop thinking about it.

Think about it.

If you let people into your life, 

truly let them in

You will see that you have a FAMILY far greater than you originally thought.

I've seen better days

I saw this one and thought "yup this about sums it all up". 

Some days you just want to stand up and shout at the top of your lungs and say ENOUGH I just want to have a better day ........ I just want 1 thing to go RIGHT!

And then I realize I don't have it so bad - there are people who have it worse than I do.

 

So I am going to look at this for a little bit

Then I'm going to print it out

And EVERY morning I am going to look at this before I start my day.

I am Blessed!

Are you?

Moms and awesomeness

Now if I could have heard this from my kids ......

I would have had a smile on my face for years and years. I know they appreciated everything I did and everything I do for them - but sometimes when you "hear" it when they don't know you are listening ........

Sorry Dad's - you are pretty wonderful too ... but well you know - I'm Just Sayin'

Herbed Chicken and Steamed Veggies in MINUTES

Here's another recipe that works great in our SmartSteamer 

(yes the one that is on Sale this month at 50% off)

 Herbed Chicken with Steamed Vegetables

Ingredients
1/2 cup fresh basil leaves
1 green onion
2 tbsp. Italian parsley
2 tbsp. capers, drained
1 tbsp. fresh lemon juice
1 clove garlic, peeled
3 tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
1 tsp. Dijon mustard
1 1/2 cups fat-free chicken broth
2 boneless chicken breasts
1/2 lb./225g green beans, trimmed
1 red pepper, cored and cut into thick strips

Place first eight ingredients in base of Chop 'N Prep™ Chef. Replace cover, twist to seal and pull cord 4-5 times to chop and combine ingredients. Remove blade and transfer sauce to a small bowl. 

Place chicken broth in Water Tray of Tupperware® SmartSteamer. Place chicken in Steamer Base; season with salt and pepper and brush with sauce. Place green beans and red pepper strips in Colander. Place the Steamer Base on top of the Water Tray and the Colander on top of the Steamer Base. Cover and microwave on high power 14 minutes or until chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165° F/75° C. 
Transfer chicken to a serving platter and brush with sauce. 
Toss veggies with remaining sauce and serve. 

I think this would be great with a serving of brown rice for a complete weeknight meal in  maybe 30 minutes.

Meaning of Life

I LOVE this one.
We are always, it seems, looking for the meaning of life.
And here we can see it is just so simple!

Why were we making it so difficult and complex?

Take me as I am

I saw this one and just had to share.

How many of us try to "change" what we do or say or look like to "fit in"?  Admit it - we all do.

 

Don't change who you are for someone else .... you will always be happier being who YOU are and what someone WANTS you to be.

Besides the real YOU is always better than any PART you can play!

What are you doing NOW?

I LOVE this.....

The PAST does not equal the FUTURE.

So very powerful,
So very true!

So lets pick ourselves up and make today - right this minute - MATTER.

I know we can do it.

Meet me half way and we are THERE.
