Hi everybody! Thanks so much for sharing your tips on saving money. We all appreciate it. I just want to tell irishmrs1 & Deneen that I signed up for my free long distance and anxiously await it. If this works out like you say it does, that will free up almost $40 a month in long distance! That is great! Cause I have the time to sit and listen to a few commercials if it means I am going to get something for free! THANK YOU FOR SHARING! Rich's grandma got out of the hospital today, but she is still not feeling great.
So we'll see what happens. Right now Jared is sitting in his bouncy chair and he is smiling and squealing at me...that is soooo cute!!! Well you all have a good day, I have to make up my menu for the next two weeks and go shopping! Talk to you later.

Ok, I am cheating today...I found a really neat website and I am going to share that with you. It is called Thrifty Traveler. My husband and I love to travel and that is a whole other arena of frugalness that can be delved into...take a look!

Defrost breast filets. In a large skillet, melt butter and brown breast filets on both sides; remove chicken and reserve. Add mushrooms, parsley, chives, dill, salt and pepper; cook until mushrooms are softened. Stir in chicken broth, return chicken to skillet, cover and simmer 15 minutes or until breast filets are tender. Remove breast filets from skillet and place in a heated serving platter. In a small bowl combine flour and sour cream.  Stir sour cream mixture into skillet; cook until heated through. DO NOT BOIL. Serve sauce over breast filets (2 T. per serving)
 
CONVENTIONAL OVEN INSTRUCTIONS
