Do you know how to tell organic Fruits and vegetables from those that aren't in the store?
It is easy.  Check the produce sticker to see if the five-digit code starts with a 9.

Fantastic Chicken Recipe (so easy your children could even do it)

1 8oz. jar Apricot Jam, 1 8 oz. bottle Wishbone Russian Salad Dressing, 1 pkg. Lipton Onion Soup Mix


Mix all together.  Pour over chicken layered in baking pan.  Bake 90 min. for each 2 chickens used in recipe at 350 degrees.  I suppose you could do this in a crock pot but I haven't tried that yet.

Random Thoughts

Well, the Super Bowl is over the my team the Green Bay Packers won.  It was a close game though and both teams played well in my opinion.  I just favor the Packers over the Steelers.  I am now forging ahead trying to get the new snow we got yesterday and last night out of my mind.  I am so ready for spring and planting flowers.  I don't know how long they will last with the my grandson's doggie living here but will try anyway.  I may have to get a 6ft fence to keep him out of them.  Speaking of doggies I believe either January or February is Spay and Neuter month.  Please everyone get your dogs and cats spayed or neutered.  We have too many homeless that are dying each and every day in our local animal shelters.  We have to be responsible pet owners.  I have three special doggies and one special kitty in my life and they have all been spayed or neutered.  Now I just have to work on my son to get his done.  :)

Sharing a Personal Moment

I just had to share this.  Last night my grandchildren who live with me really surprised me.  They were really busy with what I thought was their homework.  I soon found out they had their homework all done and they were making me personal Valentines for my Memory Box (which all the grandkids gave me for Christmas).  They soon came into my computer room and presented them all to me with such happy smiles on their faces.  It is moments like this that really make me happy I am helping my son to raise these kids.  They really made my day.  I was also proud of another grandson Parker whose game I just just come home from watching.  He had just won his basketball game as well so this was the real icing on the cake.  I know that I am blessed and just wanted to share.
