Anyway, determined to start Tuesday off on a good foot, I did a quick 3 mile run on the treadmill and refueled with a bowl of pumpkin oats. I have an acupuncture appointment after work tonight that I'm looking forward to. I haven't been in almost two weeks and I'm in desperate need of some stress relief.
Now on to the food fun. Even though last night was sweet potato night as usual, I tried something different with the chicken. I usually bake it in the oven, but thought it might taste good sauteed with the remainder of my Campbell's Heart Healthy Cream Of Mushroom Soup from the other night's spaghetti squash disaster. It turned out wonderful!
The chicken was creamy and delicious.
Steamed broccoli on the side for a veggie. The soup tasted like gravy on the chicken. Comfort food. YUM!
My question today is more of a poll really. I was going through my kitchen cabinets and found three nearly empty peanut butter jars. I'm not a fan of the blogworld's favorite breakfast, Oats In A Jar. I don't like how crusty my spoon gets, don't like that much PB in my oats and I just feel messy when I eat it. I was thinking of doing a giveaway, but feel like it's kinda nasty to give away empty jars of food. I don't eat out of the jars, double dip, use the same jelly knife or stick my fingers in them. The only things that have gone in them are knives and spoons. I know a lot of my readers are huge fans of OIAJ and I was wondering if you would enter a giveaway for the nearly empty jars or if you think it's nasty. Thoughts? Have a great day!

Don't be embarassed - I love Kim K, too. I think she is GORGEOUS. I totally feel for you. I do nothing at work all day long - like, ever. These idiots that hired me had nothing planned out, and I can't figure out why they just don't fire me. When I say I sit and do nothing all day, I literally sit and do nothing.
lol...I agree that Kim K is beautiful. I haven't checked out her blog yet though! And I am in AWE of her behind. For realsies.
Haha, its so funny because we were talking about OIAJ at dinner on Saturday and Melissa mentioned that you had brought a jar to one of your other meet ups for one of the bloggies. :) I was pretty alone on defending my love of oats in a jar at dinner, and I would definitely enter your giveaway.
I hope you have a great day - keeping my fingers crossed that its a good one!
I'm with you on the non-oats in a jar love. I've never even tried it but I usually scrape my jars pretty clean so theres nothing left anyway.
So needless to say I probably woudn't enter haha
PS Kim K is GORGEOUS
I have actually discovered that I don't care for pb in my oatmeal! (Jaws drop all over the blog world!)
I've cooked chicken with cream of mushroom before. It is good, I agree!
Hope today is a better day. There has to be a balance between complete boredom at work and complete stress.
Kim K is smokin! Love her look!
I dunno---I think the idea is a GREAT one, but Im not sure Id really wanna use your jars !Does seem a lil weird, but Im sure there are tons of girls who would enter in a second!
I am with you on reading fashion blogs all day at work. They give me nothing to do here. I am not a dan of Kim though haha sorry. Hmm I don't think I would enter..gotta be honest. It just creeps me out a little to receive a used PB jar!
You are hilarious. Giving away your empty jars of PB, like I'm giving away the PB that Nick hates..hehe. Well I wouldn't enter the giveaway, because I'm like you and I don't like OIAJ. I much prefer just taking a knife and scraping the pb out and eating it alone! I can't wait to see what the over concensus is on this....
Love the cream of mushroom on the chicken. What a prefect combination.
Hope you have a better day today Melissa! Stay busy, or at least try to...even if it means reading Glamour!
Oh man... I am not a fan of OIAJ... i dont mind a little pb in my oats but i feel the same way about you and being messy or having crusty spoons.
with crusty still on my mind... i dont think i would enter for an empty jar of pb. stick them in boiling water to loosen up the leftovers and spread it on toast! yum!
Haha, yeah I totally shared your previous jar story. :o) It was too cute not to!
I'm not a fan of OIAJ so not my kind of giveaway either.
Kim is beautiful. I wish I had her body (before quick trim).
I think you should just give the jar to me. Wht kind of PB is it??!!
Just give the jar to me ;)
Kim is so beautiful, I wish I had her pre-quick trim body.
Not embarrassing at all. If there's no work to be done, why not play! Totally awesome that I'm in therapy with Mariah! Keep it alive. If you want referrals maybe I can help. Maybe Mariah is the answer to your prayers!
haha whatever, we all have our things!!! i love her but not hte diet pill thingg..annoying. dinner looks fab
Haha don't be embarassed to tell us what you did at work, I'm just a bit jealous!
I wouldn't enter that giveaway myself because I also am not a butter in my oatmeal person but I'm sure some people would :)
HAHA don't be embarassed, Kim is so pretty and I would take fashion and beauty advice from her EVEN IF she is a robot like Vicki from Small Wonder
oooh I had spaghetti squash last night! and leftovers tonight. loveee itt.
I think she's pretty, too! Have you heard of Eye, Lips, Face (ELF) make-up? Supposedly it's great and it is SO cheap! I just ordered a ton after my girlfriend told me about it. Check it out if you like make-up :)
I don't get the OIAJ thing, either...
As far as empty jars, maybe just recycle them ;)
haha I didnt know kim had a site with tips like that! I am going to check that out! she is beautiful but its so sad her ads for the quick trim diet thing, I wish she would just stop doing those! (and khloe!!)
yummm the chicken looks great!
oh my gosh, my mom used to make chicken with cream of mushroom soup all the time as a quick meal when I was a kid...so good! I still love it! You can even thin the soup out with a little milk too- it stretches the amount of "gravy" you get! Great meal:)
