Rain ~ Keyboard ~ Picture of the Day ~ NY Yankees ~ Chicken Biscuit Skillet ~ National Walking Day


Good 47º cloudy morning.


More rain yesterday. On and off and about 1/4". 



Yesterday just about 10am my UPS Dave delivered my new computer keyboard and mouse. YES!!! They work GREAT!





Picture of the Day.... LOL!!!



Interesting about the NY Yankees.....

With 27 World Series championships, the New York Yankees have won more titles than any other franchise in the four major North American sports leagues. Forty-four Yankees players and eleven Yankees managers have been inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame, including Babe Ruth

, Lou Gehrig

, Joe DiMaggio

, Mickey Mantle

, Yogi Berra

, and Whitey Ford
 .

According to Forbes, the Yankees are the second highest valued sports franchise in the United States and the fifth in the world, with an estimated value of approximately $4 billion.



Chicken Biscuit Skillet



1 tablespoon butter
1/3 cup chopped onion
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 can (10-1/2 ounces) condensed chicken broth, undiluted
1/4 cup fat-free milk
1/8 teaspoon pepper
2 cups cubed cooked rotisserie chicken from the market
2 cups frozen peas and carrots (about 10 ounces), thawed (or any mixed vegetables you like)
1 tube (12 ounces) refrigerated buttermilk biscuits, quartered
  • Preheat oven to 400°. Melt butter in a 10-in. cast-iron or other ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion; cook and stir until tender, 2-3 minutes.
  • In a small bowl, mix flour, broth, milk and pepper until smooth; stir into pan. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly; cook and stir until thickened, 1-2 minutes. Add the chicken and frozen vegetables; heat through. Arrange biscuits over stew. Bake until biscuits are golden brown, 15-20 minutes

All I know. Nuff said. Happy Hump Day. Ciao.
xo Sue Mom Bobo



The first Wednesday in April is National Walking Day.  The American Heart Association sponsors this day to remind people about the health benefits of taking a walk.  Wear your sneakers (or take them with you) to work, and at some point in the day, you are encouraged to take a 30-minute walk. 
Here are some great ways to make that 30-minutes more enjoyable:
  • Wear comfortable clothes.
  • Take a friend to pass the time.
  • Make sure to stretch those muscles.
  • Drink plenty of water.
  • Move your arms, too.
  • Make sure you have good posture.
HOW TO OBSERVE
Take thirty minutes out of your day to go for a walk.
HISTORY
As part of the American Heart Association’s efforts to promote healthy living, National Walking Day was started in 2007.  For more information visit www.heart.org.

WOW! Lots of birthdays today!
Did you hear that Picabo Street was fired from her job in the ICU unit of a hospital? When she answered the phone she would say "Peek A Boo, ICU". LOL

I could call Alec Baldwin a jackass!

Love the looks of that biscuit skillet dinner. Copying it and will make it! :)

Your new keyboard is exactly like mine. I am working on my second one now. I have to keep buying new sticky letters to go on the keys as my long nails keep typing them off.
