Earth Day 2008
April 22, 2008 – 12:35 pm
It’s Earth Day today, but it’s sad that we only dedicate one day to “try” and save the earth. We all need to do our part to keep our planet healthy every single day that we are here. We are creating a terrible enviroment for our children and if we don’t start doing something now, it’s going to be way too hot for our kids to play outside.
Make sure everyone goes out and vote and vote for politicians who are earth friendly and actually care about the well being of the United State citizens.
Angel Chicken Pasta
April 16, 2008 – 8:47 amI tried a new recipe for dinner yesterday and it was really easy to make and tasted really good. My whole family enjoyed it and I definitely recommend it. The recipe calls for angel hair pasta, but I think it would have been better with fettucine or linguine. Of course, this is just perference. : - )
INGREDIENTS
- 6 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
- 1/4 cup butter
- 1 (.7 ounce) package dry Italian-style salad dressing mix
- 1/2 cup white wine
- 1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed golden mushroom soup
- 4 ounces cream cheese with chives
- 1/2 pound angel hair pasta
DIRECTIONS
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
- In a large saucepan, melt butter over low heat. Stir in the package of dressing mix. Blend in wine and golden mushroom soup. Mix in cream cheese, and stir until smooth. Heat through, but do not boil. Arrange chicken breasts in a single layer in a 9×13 inch baking dish. Pour sauce over.
- Bake for 60 minutes in the preheated oven. Twenty minutes before the chicken is done, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a rolling boil. Cook pasta until al dente, about 5 minutes. Drain. Serve chicken and sauce over pasta.

Just another reason you need to monitor your kids online activity
April 14, 2008 – 10:03 pm“Forget about passing notes in study hall; some teens are now using their cell phones to flirt and send nude pictures of themselves” - Fox News
Make sure monitor your child’s Facebook and Myspace page. That is their online diary and you can pretty much find out everything that is going in their lives. Some parents think it is wrong to dig into their kids private life, but it’s better than being sorry later. Trust me on this!!!
So some of you are probably wondering how to get their login information into sites like MySpace and Facebook. I use a program called Surf Spy which secretly records what sites your kids visit, including all login information. There are many other programs out there, but this one worked pretty good and it’s cheap. If you have Windows Vista, you can filter certain sites your child surfs to and give them time block of internet time. These Parental Controls are a great add in and it has been very helpful in my household. If you do not have windows Vista, check your router for the same kind of parental controls. You can also install some firmware called dd-wrt, which is really awesome, but this is definitely for the technically advanced parent.
Now, you may wonder how to check on cell phone messages. Well, this is a little easier. Just read their messages when they take a shower or go to sleep.
I remember the days when we passed notes in between classes and that was considered bad! Please constantly monitor your child’s online and cell phone activity. You just never know these days. I hope this post has helped some parents out there. Feel free to email me or ask me any questions and if you have some better solutions, please comment.
