SO far behind

Here I am again...I have a few "drafts" saved of blogs I was going to post or had started to post and never finished. Yikes.

We are in the middle of getting a new roof, well, dealing with the claims and the stupid mortgage company. Our insurance co is the BEST. THE BEST. We have had ZERO issues, ever, with them. However, the Mtg Co is a bit of a pain. Hopefully our roof will be put on next Friday. Then again, it has been 107* for the last 2 days and it doesn't look like it is getting any cooler than 95 in the next week. :( BRING ON FALL!!! I guess I forgot to mention that we had an AC that crapped out on us. GUH. We still have to get it replaced. If anyone has a few thousand dollars that you feel like throwing my way... :)

Speaking of Fall, I went to Michael's Wed. (do you hear the birds singing???) I haven't been in a few weeks so I just now saw that they have FALL stuff out! Yippeeeeee! I LOVE FALL. I have so many ideas floating around in my head, I need to just put them down on paper instead of having 500 bookmarks! lol.

Things have been good here, minus the Poison Ivy incident. Youngest son got PI and then had an allergic reaction secondary to the allergic reaction to the PI. I know, right??? It was a bad week that week!

How is your summer going? Any big plans? Hope everyone is staying cool!

Shredded Chicken Tacos

Last night I made Shredded Chicken Tacos. I will have to make them again as I didn't take pics of each step,etc. Today I took some of the leftovers and piled them on top of my cole slaw mix. It was plain mix, with no dressing or whatever on it. :wink:

I took about 8 chicken breasts and put them in my crockpot with some seasoning. I put some water (about 3c) and a bouillon cube in there with it. (This was in case I decided to make something else with the chicken) Turned it on HIGH and cooked for 5 hrs. When it was done, it FELL apart. FELL apart, peeps. I didn't have to "shred" much at all. I did have to drain some of the liquid though. I then used 2 packets of Taco seasoning and mixed it all in together.

Took a taco shell, put some cheese on the bottom and then the shredded chicken on top. Oh...yeah, I did add a little bit of sour cream, too. I was out of salsa. :(

Even DH liked these and he is NOT a chicken kind of guy. He LOVES his beef. Seriously. Loves. Beef. He even had some today for lunch! That is the real test of whether or not it was good. Lol.

If I still have some left over, I will post a pic with the cole slaw mix. It is YUMMMMY.
