Cooking Thursday

Bob and I like Chinese Food and our favorite is Orange Chicken. I saw this easy recipe to make it at home in the air fryer and knew I had to try it. It was so easy and really did turn out good. It's supposed to have green onions on top, but I didn't have any and instead sprinkled sesame seeds on it. If you like Orange Chicken, you need to give this one a try.

Orange Chicken

Chicken nuggets from the freezer section (do however many you want)
1 cup orange marmalade
1/2 cup BBQ sauce
2 teaspoons soy sauce
green onions, sliced
rice, cooked

Cook chicken nuggets in air fryer as directed on package.  (You could also do them in the oven).
While nuggets are cooking, stir the marmalade, BBQ sauce and soy sauce together and heat.
Stir nuggets into sauce mix.
Serve over hot rice and garnish with green onions.

Wordless Wednesday

 

Grandkid time!

We had a fun evening with Cassie and Connor last weekend. You may remember that Connor has had a very hard time being away from his parents, so being with just us has been a rare occasion.  However, he's been doing better and this night went very well!  

We started with some McDonalds for supper.

After supper, Cassie and I worked on a little craft. We made Super hero capes from t-shirt and glued designs on the back. We did one for Connor too, so he didn't feel left out.  We left them to dry for a while.

Then we took a walk down the road to see the horses.

We took along apple slices to feed the horses.

When we gave one to Connor, he ate it himself, instead of feeding the horses!  (Isn't that cap cute?)

We got back home and played on the swingset

Connor decided this toy wheelbarrow was perfect for sitting in

and good for riding in too!

Cassie was collecting acorns

Connor likes this little guy in our flower bed and thinks it's him.  He calls him Bubby, which is his nickname.

The capes we made earlier were now dry and ready to be tried on.

Connor wasn't thrilled, it got in his way and he just wanted to play!

Cassie loved it!  She was running and having fun with the cape twirling. Here she was asking Grandpa to show her how to fly.  :)

Such a fun night!  I think Grandpa and Grandma had the most fun though!
