Recipe of the Week; The Ultimate Barbecued Chicken
 |
| Copyright of The Old School Housewife This recipe is courtesy of Tyler Florence from the Food Network Channel. I did change a few ingredients, however, either because I didn't have them or simply didn't want to use them. He used bacon and I didn't want to, so I eliminated it and I used a little liquid smoke for the smokey taste instead; also I used dried thyme instead of fresh and honey and pure maple syrup instead of molasses. Any time you see a recipe, you can follow it but change a few things to make it your own. This chicken was delicious and I gave it ***, mostly because my husband, who doesn't like sweet foods, really liked it. |

I just love birds. I can't help it so when I see birds I have to take their picture. It isn't easy because they fly away as soon as you move. The first one is a robin cleaning himself in my Dogwood tree, just starting to bloom. The middle two are a female a male cardinal. She was alone then started to whistle and then he appeared. The bottom one is just one of those little brown birds. He was swinging away like a little child on that feeder; so cute.

The first time this year I was able to hang clothes on the line. This is one of the chores I like to do. I know, no big deal, but not everyone does it anymore, just us 'old school housewives' and if you take a trip to Lancaster County, you will see all the Amish with their clothes hanging on the line. I love it. The sun bleaches the whites, the air deodorizes them and the wind irons them. What's not to like?? Plus it's good exercise.

This is Alexis' dance recital. She's the one in the blue dress and pony tail. Dance is actually a subject in her school and they get graded on this recital. They are seniors and juniors here. It was cute to watch, they looked like they were having a lot of fun.
