Whenever you make a commitment, I think God tests you. As of today, it’s official. Both our CD and DVD drives on the computer are not reading CD’s. One thing I am trying really hard to do is figure out non-traditional methods for solving a problem. If I was at LU, I would just send out a notice that I need a CD burner and get a used one from some friend for cheap.
Still trying to figure out how to survive in the real world

We have about $50,000 in debt. Most of it is student loans. In about a month our small group is starting Financial Peace University. Brenton and I are getting a jump on it. We are ready to be free. The borrower is slave to the lender. I don’t want to be anybody’s slave. I want freedom.
I posted a few pictures on the door of our computer cabinet. An airplane, a Victorian home, today I am going to find a picture of a baby that needs adoption. We have big dreams that we can’t accomplish if we live like the rest of America.

I am going to start posting here about our progress, struggles, and setbacks. I need a cheap hobby. As of tonight the hobby money is gone for a while.

Nutmeg…
I’m sure I bought it for pumpkin pie along the way, but what do you do with nutmeg when it’s not pumpkin season? This was my fist challenge for the spice rack. So I went to Taste of home and searched “nutmeg.” The first hit was for Creamy Nutmeg Chicken. I had all of the ingredients, so I decided that I would go for it.

REVIEW:
The menu for the night was creamy nutmeg chicken, salad with sundried tomato vinagrette dressing, homemade sourdough bread. To drink we had cranberry juice and topped it off with a light dessert of vanilla yogurt with raspberries and almonds.
OH my goodness, that was restaurant quality food, or better. I would definitely recommend this recipe. It would probably be good as a topping for pasta (like an alfredo) too. I would say this is a good date night recipe because it wasn’t very labor intensive and the meal didn’t sit too heavy. I could definitely taste the nutmeg, but it wasn’t overwhelming. I was pleasantly suprised that there wasn’t a sense of eating pumpkin pie chicken.
Not only did I use nutmeg from my spice rack, I also used parsely, sage, rosemary, and thyme. I think I will put this one in my recipe file.
