I love sticky finger licking, lip smacking, buffalo chicken tenders. The kind they serve at a certain “wing” place…yeah, those! Well, I’ve taken those and added them to a salad (that just erased all the guilt..it’s in the handbook…mix fried foods with greens and greens win!) and used all my other favorite wing sides to go with it! It makes for one mouthwatering salad that is perfect in this killer heat! I don’t know about you but, I really think I’m melting! Which makes this salad just the dish to make for dinner. It quick and easy… and it won’t heat up your kitchen…even better!

It’s time for a visit from Frazzled Frannie! Hooray! I thought we’d take a short little “food” break, just for today. I want to share some of my thoughts about the toughest job in the world…Motherhood! Not just “motherhood” but, the stages of “motherhood/womanhood”. I think we as women spend too much time joking about the harsh realities of motherhood and we feel guilty if we say “HEY! This is HARD! HELP!”. So grab your favorite drink (maybe sneak in a cookie or cupcake) and join me for a couple of minutes.

Last week I needed to come up with a dinner in a hurry! I had a hangry man coming home and I forgot to pull something out of the freezer! Yikes! (This ever happen to anyone else?) So, I went digging in the fridge and this is what happened! One AMAZING hot sandwich that is a quick, easy, and fantastically delicious meal!

To round out this week I wanted to share one of our favorite new frozen treats! Hand dipped chocolate frozen banana’s with toasted almonds! Usually a treat only found at fairs or amusement parks, I decided it was about time we brought this special treat home to roost! They are so “a-peeling!” (You didn’t think I could resist that pun did you?) You are going to love how simple these are to make and you are REALLY going to love how heavenly they are on a warm summer night!

This week is living proof that sometimes things just don’t go as planned! (Like a trip to the Emergency Room! Ugh!) When that happens you just have to pick yer’self up by the boot straps and keep on moving forward! So, when things aren’t going exactly how you planned, and you need a little sunshine in your life, I say start from the very beginning…Breakfast! What d’ya think? Would this beautiful mixed berry stuffed french toast chase away your blues? (Even though they’re “black”berries? Hmmmm!) It worked for me! I think it will work for you too!
