Easy Chicken Divan



I found a recipe of Kent's Mom's that I've never made before and it was our new recipe for the week. It was a big success. Caleb even manned up and ate the broccoli that was left on his plate. I've never cooked a dish with curry powder before (plain Jane remember) and we liked this flavor. I did use medium cheddar cheese instead of American because that's what I had on hand that needed used.

Easy Chicken Divan ...Beverly Jensen

Prob'ly Not

Ethan, how about a smile while you're watching a dvd? Prob'ly not.
Ethan has us all saying "prob'ly not" like he does.
Nanette says she's heard him talking to himself and saying, "Go to Nana's? Prob'ly not."
How cute is that?
