This Creamy Chicken Noodle Soup recipe from Cooking Classy is so good! I am all about a fast meal - especially tonight since I was running behind - so I threw all my veggies in a food processor to speed up the process... The only other changes I made to the recipe were to use rotisserie chicken instead of…

That's kind of a tongue twister! To celebrate we did an Internet search and came across a list of supposed Quirky Country Music song titles. These were my favorites... If I Can't Be Number One In Your Life, Then Number Two On You You're the Reason Our Kids Are So Ugly Her Teeth Were Stained, But…
In honor of National Make Up Your Own Holiday Day we created Silly Song Day! When I was a kid my mom would have everyone sing/speak as if we were Opera singers. It made for lots of laughs!
