The Goods

2 pkgs. refrigerated crescent rolls
2 c shredded chicken
1 1/2 c coarsely chopped broccoli
1 c shredded cheddar cheese
1/2 c diced red pepper
1 c mayonnaise
1 garlic clove, pressed

salt and pepper to taste

Put 1 package of chicken breasts in the crockpot for about 4 hours with a small amount of water covering the bottom. Add one packet of good seasons dry italian dressing, and let cook till you can shred the chicken. (About 4 hours). You can use any shredde chicken, but I think cooking it this way packs the chicken full of flavor and makes it extra tender.

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

Combine chicken (slightly cooled), broccoli,cheese, bell pepper, mayo, salt and garlic; mix well.
Lay crescent rolls out into a circular shape, overlapping slightly.
Scoop filling evenly onto pastry. Fold tips of crescents loosely over top of filling.

Cook for 20-23 minutes.

SHower?? WHat!!

I still haven't figured out how to shower before Brielle's nap or 10 pm! I can't leave Brielle alone with the baby cause she will maul her to death and Teja can't be sat down for one second with out screaming--unless she is sound asleep, which I never know when that will happen! So how do you do it??? How do you get ready? or do you??

On top of that--how do you clean with one hand?? We had my mom and dad, me, and adam all weekend and it still seemed impossible to keep my house clean.

My two Girls!
