Todays Tidbits

Well, Today the weather is not quite so great as the past few days but heck, I am above ground so all is good! 
Friday Mary and I continued my househunting and we went up to Chiloquin and looked at a couple of places.  I liked the location of one over the other but the view right on the lake was great!   Would still like to stay in Klamath Falls if possible but we will see.
Yesterday all the Klamath Falls Charming Chicks met at Faiths' house for a girly day.  We all brought finger foods and some of us had wine and we did facials, and pedicures and had a great time.  Oh we also did the hands in parafin wax to soften and had lots of fun.  Here is Mary and myself with a skin mask on and our gloved hands that have been waxed.  We look so lovely dont you think? lol  By the way Cheryl, you win as you can see and I owe you the bottle of wine. LOL
Ok now for a great recipe to have sometime.

        Drunken Chicken Tacos
2 med. diced onions     3-4 Tlbs. Olive Oil    1 large can diced Ortega Chlis
2 limes quarted, unpeeled          1 Heap.Tlbs. Chopped Garlic
4-6 cups cooked chicken meat  (if canned do not drain)
1Heap.Tlbs. Chicken Base or I use boullion
2 shots of Tequila

Saute onions in olive oil until opaque, add green chilis, salt and pepper, garlic
and limes. Simmer for 2 minutes, add chicken, chicken base and tequilla. Simmer for 30 minutes, breaking up chicken as you stir.  Cook down, uncovered until meat is juicy but not runny.  If meat gets too dry add chicken broth, or additional base with water and continue to simmer.  Remove limes and discard.  Serve with black olives, cheese, sour cream and tomatoes rolled into flour tortillas.  Guacamole is a special topping for this taco too.
Acompany with mex. rice and green chili and lime refried beans.

Billy Bird and Mom brush calves

Billy Bird and Mom brush calves
grooming Cheech and Chong to keep them friendly has become a daily chore. The calves now are about 350 pounds and were starting to not want our company so now I brush them and have created a monster with Cheech. I have discovered he loves apples and carrots. Chong however wont even smell the goodies. Now Cheech stands in front of the front porch moowing at me for his treats. After I give him his treats it is hard to get back to the house and he is very determined to find more in my pockets.
