I woke up this morning thinking about summer. My husband, Dean, and I love the outdoors.We are lookihng forward to camping and motorcycle riding. We have a fifth wheel Colorado Travel Trailer that we bought about three years ago. We started out with a Star Stream Travel trailer and had the opportunity to swap campers with some friends of ours. In May we are going to Taledago, Alabama to the Nascar Races. This will be our first long trip pulling the camper and our first trip to see the races. We are so excited! Our favorite place to camp is in Henderson, Louisiana at a RV Resort. Mainly we like it because of the pool area and they have plenty activities planned all weekend. They have bands come and play, a theater for the kids, putt-putt golf, fishing ponds, volleyball, playground area, and a great crowd of cajun people that as very friendly and fun.

Love this adorable dress.

Spring Dresses are so pretty!
I believe we all get caught up in being so busy that we don't stop to count our blessings. I try to be thankful daily for what I have in life. I am blessed to have a job that I love, a husband that I enjoy spending time with ( usually enjoy it), a family that is supportive and always has my back, grandchildren that I adore, my health, and also I have a heart to try and help people feel good about themselves.

Healthy Recipes

Most of the time I try to eat healthy. Today I went to the store by myself and was able to read labels and take  my time without any distractions. I'm always on the right track until my husband goes with me and wants all the fattening snacks. He has been pretty good this week not complaining about the foods I prepared. I made Chicken Salad last night.



Curry Chicken Salad



3 boneless/skinless chicken breasts

1/2 cup of Mayo (NOT miracle whip)

2 teaspoons Curry powder

1/4 cup of finely chopped celery

1 cup of grapes, halved



Directions:

Boil chicken breasts, cool & cut into bite sized pieces

Combine mayo & curry and add chicken bits

Stir it up

Add the other ingredients

Stir it up again

Refridgerate for at least 2 hours prior to consumption

Best paired with crossaints

Enjoy!



I was introducted to the delishiousness at my friend Jackie's wedding in February!
My aunt hunted down the recipe and now I'm a happy girl, haha

Yum, it was a struggle though because I have this ridculous notion that fruit should be eatten by itself and not blended with things such as salad, but I have to admit that this salad would not be the same with out the grapes!

I used red grapes!



You're welcome world, you are welcome :)
