A yummy recipe

Cola Chicken
4 skinless chicken breast
1 cup ketchup
1 12oz.diet cola

Place chicken in non-stick skillet. Pour ketchup and cola over it. Bring to a boil-cover and reduce heat-cook 30-45 mins.
Uncover, turn heat up and cook until sauce thickens and adheres to the chicken.

This might sound a little strange, but it was so good and so simple to make. I think this sauce could also be used in the crock pot and used with pork or ground meat for sloppy joes. There are leftovers that will be used to make chicken salad for lunch tomorrow.

a new job

Since my return from Brazil, I have not had a regular, permanent job. I did not want to be in school and work…I’ve already done that. So, for the past year I have been a babysat and done other odd jobs. Over the past few months I have sensed that my patience was wearing thin with toddlers. A few weeks ago I made the decision that I would look for a more permanent job. That same week I got a call from a woman in my church who works for an attorney. He was looking to hire a legal assistant and did I want the job? I was told to bring my resume to church and she would introduce us. That Sunday after church I went to his office for the interview and am now gainfully employed. *happy dance* I will miss the kids but I will not miss the whining and snotty noses.
