Good afternoon friends! We are just hanging around the house today waiting to go to movie in the park tonight. I think we might be more excited about it than the kids. We have been ready to get out and about a little bit more now that we are spending all of our time together at home. Don't get me wrong, I love it but sometimes the walls feel like they're closing in on me. We need more free things to do in order to stay on target with our monthly budget. Summer is tricky, so much more to do but the same amount of money to do it. Do y'all have a summer bucket list of free activities you could share? Maybe we need to create a summer budget like we do for Christmas? There's a good thought a little too late. Next year I guess.







 The kids are napping right now and I just finished editing a newborn session that I recently did. Isn't she absolutely precious? She was teeny tiny...like 5 lbs. I think I need another baby girl;)

We have been eating a lot of sandwiches lately and I want to share this recipe with you. It's by far my most favorite chicken salad sandwich recipe. Maybe because it's made with one of the best dressings you can buy. You should go check out Briannas Salad Dressing website for some good recipes. I haven't made anything from there that I didn't like.

Cha Cha Chicken Salad

4 chicken breasts, seasoned with Tony Chachere’s Creole Seasoning
16 oz. bag coleslaw that includes both red and green cabbage and carrots (didn't add this either)
1 1/2 cups red seedless grapes, sliced in half
1 1/2 cups celery, sliced thin
1 cup sliced walnuts, chopped medium (add before serving)
1 cup Asian pears, unpeeled (add before serving) ( I didn't have pears)
12 oz. BRIANNAS Rich Poppy Seed Dressing ( I only add enough to mix it well)
Salt and pepper, to taste

Grill seasoned chicken breast, cool and slice or cube. Mix cubed or sliced breasts with all other ingredients if serving immediately. Otherwise, add the pears and nuts when you are ready to serve. This will keep the pears from browning and walnuts from getting soggy. This is a fabulous salad for a light dinner or luncheon. Serve it on a leaf of red cabbage or leaf lettuce with a slice of fresh bakery bread on the side.

Hope y'all are having a great day!
