Pinterest Pick to Try Out!

So I have seen this a few times on Pinterest ( Headband Holder) and thought how that would be such a good idea for Taylor (my oldest) since she is always forgetting where she places everything!

BUT I wasn't sure about using an oat cylinder for it. It is made of cardboard/paper and it seems like she would be able to poke a hole in it. So I thought about using a formula can. Olivia (my youngest) drinks Enfamil and I have an empty can just sitting around I was trying to think of something to use it for. Not only can it hold her hair bands and barrettes but she can also put her headbands on it and no matter how clumsy and forceful Taylor is she won't be able to poke a hold through the metal can!
So I am going to do this sometime this week and will post the results!

Winner Winner Chicken Dinner!

For the longest time I was always unsure of how to cook with chicken. My husband has always been a red meat and potatoes kind of guy so I never really made anything with chicken. Well within in the past 2 years we have really started to eat more chicken so I have been trying to find easy no fail recipes for chicken and I found the grand winner!
Crockpot chicken tacos is probably one of the easiest recipes I have made but it is SO good! I found it on Chocolate Therapy through Pinterest and with the whopping three main ingredients I figured it couldn't get more simpler. 

Ingredients:
package of boneless skinless chicken breasts. The original recipe calls for 6 pieces of chicken but I used 3 chicken breasts and that was more than enough!
Taco Seasoning (I used the chicken taco seasoning)
One 16oz jar of salsa

Put everything into the crockpot and either cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 4-6 hours (closer to 4 hours). When it is done the chicken will literally shred apart with a fork.


Use tortillas and load them with your favorite toppings for the tacos: sour cream, tomatoes, lettuce, cheese, etc.



I had enough leftover for lunch for the next 2 days and it was just as good as the first time. 

I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as I did!!
