Recipe ThursdayZ | Crockpot Sesame Chicken

 
This week’s recipe  |  CROCKPOT SESAME CHICKEN
Sesame Chicken is my all-time favorite chinese food and while I definitely prefer the restaurant version (especially Ming’s Garden), sometimes a little less fried food is a good thing.  So here is a slightly healthier version that you can make in your crockpot!

Yields 8-10 servings

Life 365 | Week 52

Joey came home in the middle of the day with an amazing surprise! He received one of his company’s employee awards this year! And what did he receive – AN IPAD! And not just any iPad – the best one that they have out right now. WOW! He was so excited and I’m just so proud of him. He totally deserves it. It is so fun to see him enjoying it!

It snowed again – and it was the best snowman-making snow – so of course we had to get out in it today! It’s fun having the kids home during the day. We made our Frosty and made snow angels and had a snowball fight and just had so much fun. Unfortunately, it got warmer later in the day, and some of the snow melted away, along with our Frosty. I was so glad we didn’t delay in getting out there and playing!

Today’s activity was to read and watch the movie of The Best Christmas Pageant Ever! So in between playing and cleaning, we read the book and before bedtime we had it done, so we got to watch the movie! It was so fun!

We did laundry and cleaning today and the kids got to play games on Joey’s little computer. They loved it!

What an amazing day today. Joey completely surprised me this year – many times he is quite the grinch around Christmas – but this season, he has been so wonderful. I think its because as a family, we have really focused on teaching the kids the real meaning of Christmas – we have been reading scriptures every night and the kids have really responded to Jesus and the Christmas story. Joey went shopping and came home with Uncle Aaron and a whole list of fun things to do today. I did some cooking so that all I had to do was stick the potatoes in for tomorrow’s Christmas dinner and did some last minute cleaning. I also made up a batch of swirl cookies for Santa. We played games, and did puzzles, and watched movies, and read books and just spent the whole day together. We were glad to have Aaron join us. We also took the Trax up to temple square and saw the lights and the wonderful nativity scene they had there. There was such a wonderful spirit on the temple grounds and it was so fun being there on Christmas Eve. On the way home, we picked up Chinese food from our favorite place – Mings Garden – and then we came home and ate it. We opened our new pajamas and got a picture of us in them before bedtime.

It was a fabulous Christmas! The kids had so much fun. From Santa, JJ got Buzz and Beth got a Rapunzel doll. And they also received from us – Jessie, Woody, and Bulls-eye, lots of games, movies, and other fun things and we just spent the whole day playing. The Toy Story movies have meant a lot to me and the kids so it was so fun to see Beth and JJ play with their new Toy Story characters! Joey surprised us all with the Wii Sports Resort Game and he gave me the Wii Fit Plus – which I have wanted for a long time! It was a great day!

It’s just so much fun to have new things to play with! It was a relaxing day – just spent at church and together.

The kids have really enjoyed the “Spring Days.” They have been playing outside in the yard together and they get so worn out. They sleep much better and they are happier too, so it has been really great!

The kids played at the park for awhile today. They just had to wear their cool sunglasses and they were too cute!

On our way to the mail today, Beth picked up a tree branch filled with beautiful blossoms. She was so delighted about it and kept it with her all day!

It was Bring Your Daughter to Work Day at Joey’s work so Beth got to go with her Daddy today. They had a great program for them with Breakfast, Lunch, and fun activities. They had a passport to go to different rooms that represented different countries and had fun learning activities at each of them.

Joey had to go to meetings in Salt Lake City today so after JJ’s school we headed up there to watch Joey play racquetball and go to Mings for Dinner. We got to visit with Sabrina, Brandon, and Pete and that is always so much fun!

Saturday, April 25, 2009

Joey stayed overnight at Pete’s last night and then went to the Salt Lake Temple this morning. We picked him up at the Trax Station and went to lunch. We spent the rest of the rainy day at home. I picked up some Strawberries yesterday and made yummy Strawberry Shortcake for dessert. I whipped up homemade cream for the first time and it tasted really good! The whole family loved it!

The kids were sick today, so we didn’t get to go to church. We watched some movies, played, worked on our computers, and just spent the whole day in the house. We ended the day with our new Sunday tradition – Chocolate Pudding!

And here is my weekly layout:week17I used my Digital 365 Kits to create this layout.
