Carrie S. Forbes - Gingerlemongirl.com: This Week's Menu (February 4th

Mollie who is the queen bee around here, sticks her tongue out at us frequently.
I can't decide if she's making fun of us or not!

My ode to chicken...

Dear chicken,

I have missed you. I missed you the whole entire month of January. I am so glad we can eat you again. I don't think I could ever give you up for good. As much as my mind would like to become a vegetarian, and as much as I do enjoy tofu now that I've learned how to cook it... I still love you chicken.

I missed you more than sugar. I missed you more than milk. I missed you more than red meats (which I think I can truly live without), I missed you more than pizza... yes, I did. Thank you for being healthy, super easy to fix, low in calories, and high in protein. I just wish you were cheaper and that the Piggly Wiggly stocked organic, free-range, and vegetarian-fed versions of you. Oh well. I still love you chicken.

Sincerely from your biggest fan,
Ginger Lemon Girl

I've finally been tagged!

Maybe it's a mere coincidence that in 7 months of blogging I have not been "tagged" until now! You haven't either?

Well here is how it works: I am supposed to list 7 random things about myself, post the rules, link back to the person who tagged me and then tag 7 more unsuspecting bloggers. Here’s the rules: 1. Link to the person that tagged you and post the rules on your blog. 2. Share 7 random and/or weird things about yourself. 3. Tag 7 random people at the end of your post and include links to their blogs. 4. Let each person know that they have been tagged by leaving a comment on their blog.

I was tagged by Carol at Simply... Gluten Free. Thanks Carol! Check out her excellent gluten free blog! This girl was an extra in "Raising Arizona!" How cool is that!

7 Random Things You Never Needed to Know about Ginger Lemon Girl:

In 11th grade, I co-anchored a news program for our local high school... (boy, those were the days! Right John and Amy!) The other anchor of the news program is now a professional weatherman... and I'm writing a food blog on the side! ;-P
The first cake I ever made was a carrot cake. I cut my finger shredding the carrots. I haven't made a carrot cake since. Maybe it's time.
I'm addicted to books. I usually read 2-3 books a week... and that's not counting all those cookbooks I glance through on a daily basis! My personal favorite books are classic young adult books like the "Little House on the Prairie" series and the "Anne of Green Gables" series.
My favorite ice-cream is plain ol' vanilla with lots of cinnamon sprinkled on top.
I have really bad "test" anxiety. After failing the written portion of my driver's license test twice, I was determined that I would have a personal cab the rest of my life. My dad didn't like that suggestion. I passed on the 3rd try.
Michael and I got married barefoot on the beach, in gorgeous weather during the month of October, in an unrehearsed ceremony. I'll never regret not having a traditional wedding!
I have lots of freckles and very light skin. When I was little my nickname was Strawberry Shortcake.

Don't you feel like a more well-rounded person for knowing all this? Okay, now it's my turn...
