Every time I thought I could go throw the chicken in the pot, Baby had other ideas. Goodness if he isn't the sweetest reason for a complicated kitchen life. And truly, all said and done, it really did only take me 2 minutes to make the chicken, three hours after I first attempted. So I guess this post is correct after all.

We'll be eating that chicken tonight with Elias' friends (he's got 10 coming so far) when we serve a Chipotle Bar to celebrate his 21st birthday. He also requested Brownie Sundaes like this. So about those brownies...

Malachi had a break between classes this morning so I asked him to melt butter to get the brownies started since my arms were full of hungry Baby. Then I asked him to crack in the eggs. Then if he wouldn't mind, would he go ahead and measure in the sugar? Malachi was like, "So should I just go ahead and make the entire brownie recipe??" Yes please. That is exactly what you should do. :) :) :) What a guy.

I love all of the 30 ways of showing love that are mentioned in this packet, by #12 is the one Matt and I are most passionate about right now. Such a simple, but necessary way to reach people with love.

Happy last day of January!
