- I am a good listener. My friends often come to me for a shoulder to cry on or for advice, and I am pleased that they feel they are able to talk to me and trust me.
- I am good at organisation and arranging fun things to do. My friends are always really complimentary about events I plan, and say I should be a life coach or a party planner and that always means a lot to me. I enjoy being able to provide fun things for people to do!
- I am quite a deep thinker – this can be a pain at times as I have a tendency to over analyse everything, but I’d rather be someone who overthinks things than someone who floats through life without ever really taking things in.
My favourite, go-to dinner recipe – Chicken A La King!
You Will Need:
Chicken of your choice (Roast breast, leg meat, fillet, etc) – cooked and torn into strips
1 Green pepper, 1 red and 1 yellow pepper – de-seeded and chopped
1 large onion – peeled and chopped
2 or 3 garlic cloves – peeled and crushed
approx 150 ml of decent quality white wine
approx 500 ml of single pouring cream – possibly more, depending on how much sauce you like
Boiled basmati rice – of your choice, I use boil in the bag for ease!
- Grease a frying pan or use a little oil, add your onions and peppers and fry off until softer
- Add your crushed garlic and torn chicken to the frying pan and heat
- Meanwhile prepare your rice as normal
- Add wine to the frying pan and reduce
- Remove from heat for a moment and add cream
- Stir through and return to a gentle heat for approx 4 mins
- Serve your chicken a la king over your rice
- Enjoy!!
Hmm, I’d say I’m proud that my business seems to be doing well. I’ve started some new advertising campaigns lately and I have had a few new bookings over the last few days. This weekend I have two parties booked, which means I stand to make about £300 profit by Sunday evening for about 7 hours work! Woo hoo! 🙂
I’m also proud of the meals I’ve cooked this week, as Jon & I are trying to save money and eat out/order takeaways less – so I’ve been making an effort to make some good home-cooked meals. Not for health reasons (They’ve not been the healthiest options!) but for the purse strings and so that Jon has something nice and hot to come home to 🙂
I’m gonna be posting up my week in meals at the end of the 7 day trial period!
