Full of Gratitude Friday

I missed Thankful Thursday this week, so now we has Full of Gratitude Friday.  Hey, it's the best I could do... :)

  • My dishwasher.  I've been running that thing ragged.  I cringe to think what it would be like not to have it. I'm pretty sure if I didn't have one, we would be keeping Chinet and Dixie Cups in business.
  • My cell phone.  I have gotten so used to having one around, I feel a little panicked if I happen to leave it at home. 
  • Our church cookbook.  I am a creature of habit.  I tend to make the same 20 meals over and over again.  At bunco this week, Alisha made 5 things - all recipes out of our church cookbook (that she so tirelessly put together).  I thought that was a fantastic idea, so I sat down Thursday morning and made a menu for the next two weeks and a grocery list to go along with it.  For the next 13 days, we are having recipes that I have never made before so we can get a little variety!!  (I made Kelly's Cranberry Chicken last night and it was easy and very good - Reed ate a whole chicken breast!)  Anyway, all that to say, it's nice to have a resource for good recipes that people will actually want to eat!
  • Being well again!  I think I (or someone in my family) have/has been sick since the middle of December.  I'm glad that everyone is feeling back to normal. 
  • My sweet husband and great kids.  I am thankful for having them every day.
