Quick and Easy Dinner 20 minutes Tops!!

So I really just threw this together one evening for dinner and it was Delicious and Healthy!!
This is what I used in this wonderful dish:
1 tbsp. chopped garlic
1 medium onion chopped

 2 cups Fresh Sugar Snap Peas

 2 cups Baby Portabella Mushrooms Sliced
2 Frozen Chicken Breasts
Ziploc Steamer bags
1 Tbsp Olive oil
 2 cups Ready to Serve Chicken flavored Minute Rice

Place both  FROZEN Chicken Breasts in Ziploc Steamer Bag and place in microwave for 7 minutes.
Add olive oil to large pan and heat to medium temperature Add Sugar Snap Peas and garlic. Saute for about 3-5 minutes. You still want the crunch in the snap pea and you don't want the garlic to burn. Remove from pan and set aside. Add to pan mushrooms and onion. Saute until tender and all liquid is gone.
While mushrooms are in the pan remove chicken from microwave. Cook rice according to package directions.
Thin slice the chicken using fork and knife...it's hot!
Add chicken in with mushrooms and onion and stir fry until chicken has some color.
Place snow peas back in with chicken and mushrooms.
Toss rice in pan just to combine. Serve
I served with whole wheat bread and butter and sliced pears in their own juice.
The kids loved it as well!

This is the quick and easy version of a Gingerbread House. Hot glue the house together. All the kids want to do is get to the decorating. After years of waiting for the frosting to dry I decided to hot glue. We never eat the house ayway. Only the candy!!
One tub of vanilla icing and candy from kit. Sometimes I add more but this year we just used what we had in the box.
Let them have a blast. Fun!!

Festive Shortbread Cutouts

The pop of red and the wonderful delicate shortbread adds

Peppermint Chocolate Delights

Tried a new recipe today and OH MY!! Are they ever good!.It's snowing outside today in Tennessee.
What a cozy day to create a new Christmas Cookie.  Christmas music on the IPOD, Lasagna is in the oven and Cheesy Potato Soup on the stove. We are getting our jammies on early and watching ELF. Good Times.
Oh and today I forgot to put on mascara before Church. Well today was Baptism day and needless to say I'm glad I forgot the mascara. It would have been gone anyway.I love our new Church. This was our first experience in seeing adults being baptised and it was beautiful. I loved it! Happy Sunday =)

Christmas at Sweetie Cakes

Lots of Sweet Treats coming out of the oven this Holiday Season. The kitchen smells Wonderful!
From top to bottom...Molasses Snowflakes, who would have thought Molasses Cookie dough is so easy to work with for cutouts. Polish Kolachky, fruit filled delicate pastry dough melts in your mouth. Plus, its not overly sweet so you can eat more than one. French Puffs, great for Christmas Morning! Molasses Red Tree Cookies for my favorite local Coffee Shop Restaurant! They are big so it's like a meal with coffee. Last but not least I have to make something for all of the kids teachers. A box of Sweetie Cakes Cupcakes decorated for Christmas! Yum!!
