Chicken Crescents

This is another recipe that my Mom made all the time while I was growing up. Even after all these years, it's still one of my favorites!

To make it you'll need:

2.5 c. cubed or shredded chicken breasts (you can also used canned chicken)
1 c. shredded cheese
2 cans refrigerated crescent rolls
2 cans cream of chicken soup
2 c. milk

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Place approx. 2 T. of chicken and cheese in crescent roll. Roll up and pinch sides closed. Put in 9x13 pan. Heat together soup, milk, and 1/2 c. cheese. Pour about 2/3 of this over the rolls. Bake for 25 minutes. Sprinkle the rest of cheese over the rolls and bake for 5 minutes more. Top with extra sauce.

I've Got Nothin'

I've got 3 projects in the works that I need to finish....AND I've decided to bite the bullet and get some scrapbooking done too! I'm atleast 5 years behind, but I've figured out a way to get my kids' scrapbooks caught up that isn't too overwhelming for me. I'm actually really excited about it! I'll share what I'm doing and maybe even show off some pages when I get them done!

In the meantime....look what I got in the mail over the weekend!! My sister-in-law has been collecting juice pouches for me and sent me 72 of them!! And she has more that she's going to be sending my way soon.....Yay!! I can't wait to get some juice pouch purses/bags made out of these beauties!

Sew Cute Tuesday {3.09.10}

Tuesdays are fast becoming my favorite day of the week!! I look forward to seeing all the fun ideas that you have....and adding to my "To Do List"!

As always, it was hard to choose which ideas I wanted to feature, but here's four of my favorites.

A Vision to Remember made this 'felt' playhouse for her daughter. This is definitely on my "To Do List"!!


Be The Thread made this cute Tinkerbell purse...and she's got a tutorial in the works!! Can't wait for that!


Check out Icing On the Cake's Sassy Stockings! She made these to give to her sister on her birthday.....what a great birthday present!
