A Glimmer of Things to Come...

So yesterday was one of those dreary winter days....aka:  One filled with icy rain & sleet.  NOT fun and nowhere NEAR as beautiful as my beloved snow:)  So despite it being a "CLASS A Soup Day," I was pretty happy that I was craving our "Tuesday Salad" this week:  Buffalo Chicken tenders with Blue Cheese Salad....
It was nearly identical to our favorite Buffalo Chicken & Blue Cheese Cole Slaw...but we threw some lettuce in there and called it a salad for the night:)  We:
  1. Coated chicken tenders in buffalo sauce & panko and baked for 40 minutes at 350.
  2. Mixed up the Blue Cheese Dressing...same as here.
  3. Toss dressing together with lettuce, cole slaw mix & scallion.
Spicy, cool & crunchy...and INFINITELY healthier than wings! :)  Gotta love that:)

And for my sweet tooth, I grabbed one of these milk chocolate truffles that Santa had brought for Scott (opps:)  It was sooooooo good and one was only 105 calories!  Can't beat that!

And in NON-food news...I just had to show you this, especially on yet another dreary day.  I had gotten this beautiful bouquet over the weekend from my mother-in-law & niece and CHECK out this newly bloomed flower I found when I got home....

Isn't that gorgeous????  I just thought it looked so tropical, that it would give all of you a glimmer of hope that spring/summer won't be too far away;)
Even I, a true lover of winter, enjoyed the glance:)  Not to mention, my entire house smells like spring now:) hahahahahahahhaa....

Anyway....so how bout I was one day late in hearing the announcement that Regis is retiring???  I was so sad, but I guess not really all that shocked;)  Awww...I'll miss the Reg:)
Alright, let me go cry in my cornflakes...Have a great Wednesday, everyone! ;)
