My purpose

Dinner time in our family has always been an important time for all five us to sit together an unwind with some great food and wonderful company. Since the start of our relationship Chad and I have always enjoyed spending time together in the kitchen. Chad has a great passion and talent for food, and he has definitely passed on his love of cooking to me. Some of my favorite memories are around the table. For the next year our challenge is to write on here each night about our dinner experiences, and of course the recipes. When the year is all said and done our hope is to turn the blog into a keepsake book for each one of our children. I hope they always remember the importance of eating dinner as a family.

Last Night

The Menu

Lemon pepper Chicken, sour cream potatoes, cornbread stuffing, and

left over broccoli and cauliflower.


I hate to admit it but I used boxed potatoes and stove top dressing. I try not to use boxed foods at all but they come in handy when I am running behind. Around the table we always ask the kids questions about their day or other general questions. I am trying to teach them how to engage in conversation. Last night Kaylee asked her brother, What he likes best about summer so far? He gave the best answer a mother could hear, 'Spending time with my family'. I hope he always feels that way!


The Recipe

Lemon Pepper Chicken

1pkg legs and thighs, Mrs. Dash lemon pepper season, 2 lg lemons

Wash chicken thoroughly, cover the chicken in seasoning and lemon juice. Put chicken in a 9x13 baking pan bake @400 for 45 minutes or till juices are clear
