Ok, so I have managed to clip all my coupons. Now I am sitting here with them wondering what in the hell I am going to DO with them :o)
I did think of something new that I want to do on here... I want to start posting recipes. I prefer to bake above all else, but I do have some other good recipes. Some I use a lot, others only once in a while. I have a husband that does not like to try many things so I am limited in ingredients sometimes or him having to fend for himself when I am really craving something. The first recipe I will post is something that I love in the Spring and Summer on grilled chicken.

Avocado, Corn and Tomato Salsa

1/4 c fresh lime juice
2 T oil
2 tsp. Sugar
1/2 tsp salt
1 large ripe avocado-peeled,seeded and diced
1 large tomato, diced
1 c thawed frozen or canned corn kernels
1/4 c chopped red onion
1/4 c chopped fresh cilantro
1/4 tsp salt and pepper

Roll limes on counter and heat for 10 sec. in the microwave. Cut in half and squeeze out juice into a bowl. Add oil, sugar, salt, avocado, tomato, corn, red onion, and cilantro. Stir until mixed wel. Add salt and pepper to taste. Use as a side dish or later on grilled chicken breasts.

It really is very yummy. I love avocados so it is a great fresh recipe that really adds something to plain grilled chicken.

*sigh* I just made a dr appt. I HATE going to the doctor. I have been yelled at for some time to go and see my doc since I went to the hospital and my GRANDMA got onto my case so I figured I better get it done before she beats me. Blah, blah and BLAHHHHH...

Blah, oh well... I will get over it and it is not til the middle of next month so I have some time to forget about it and pout later :o) Have I ever mentioned that I do not care for doctor appt's?? The orneriness in our family runs deep. We are all stubborn and don't like to go to the doctor unless we just HAVE to.
OK, well I am off to clean my bathroom, it could use a good scrubbing down and I guess I am the one hired to do it... blah yet again :o)
