He's Perfect For Me

Believe it or not Eric and I do not have a perfect marriage and occasionally we have our, "disagreements." This morning we had one of those "disagreements" and I was feeling pretty upset about it when Easton (out of the blue) said, "Mom, Daddy loves you." He wasn't aware of any rifts between Eric and I because we had not disagreed in front of him but I believe the Lord prompted him to say that to serve as a reminder that though Eric is not always my Prince Charming, he is a wonderful husband and loves me so much that even our 3 1/2-year-old son notices it. What a blessing to have a Christian husband that makes wrongs, right and is easy to forgive. Doesn't hurt that he is pretty darn funny and I can't stay mad at him for long.

A trip to Thailand is the theme for dinner tonight...

Chicken Satay with Peanut Sauce
1 lb Chicken tenders
Teriyaki marinade (I use Lawry's)
1/2 cup apple juice
1/3 cup peanut butter (any kind/type will do)
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon curry paste (more if you like it hot)
wooden skewers


Place chicken in plastic bag, add Teriyaki marinade and let sit in fridge for at least 2 hours or over night. Soak wood skewers in water 30 minutes before grilling.


Place chicken on skewers and grill on each side about 3-5 minutes. Mix remaining ingredients in small bowl and heat in microwave for one minute or until warm. Serve with chicken, brown rice and steamed broccoli.
