1/12/2012 - crock pot chicken parm


Today's been a very annoying day!!! we were post to be moving into on post housing in the next month or so, however they said today its gonna be a while so justin and I made a choice to just stay where we are! Hard thing to do since I strongly dislike this place but its cheaper and maybe its for the better! so today was family day so justin got home a little early. we wanted chicken parm one of our favorite meals so since I have now one week to make room for the big stuff in storage to be moved into this house I thought crockpot that way I dont have to watch it! again we are using the big crock pot that cooks way to fast. so I got everything in the crock pot at 3:00 and then went back to unpacking boxes that I just packed (pain in the but) at 3:30 justin called to say hes on the way home and a light bulb went off in my head hello dummy you gotta turn on the crock pot! I had everything in it and thought it was cooking but forgot to turn it on! blonde moment! at 5:45 justin checked the chicken and it was fully cooked! so I started some noodles to have it over noodles.
