The Chinese Chicken Salad looks really good! I found it on Adventures of Miss Mommy's meal plan.

Simplicity - the never-ending quest in my life. :) Good on you for finding ways to do that.

The prices here are about the same pound to US dollar, so if something costs about a dollar in the States, it is about a pound here. The biggest problem is that our income and money is still tied to the US, so all our money is dependent on the exchange rate which right now is about 1US Dollar = 1.69 GB Pounds. That is what really makes it so expensive for us.

That is great that you can manage a night out together. I hope that can become a regular treat for you. Meanwhile, dinner at your place looks great this week, as usual. How does Scotland compare price wise to US for food and other items? Food is always a big expenditure on our budget, too.

Did you guys get sicker???<br /><br />On the Tikka Masala, do you use the jarred sauce here or make some? Is it Indian?

Hi, not really related to the subject :) Was searching for information about continuous prayer in Aberdeen, Scotland and found your site. Have you heard about http://www.247prayeraberdeen.org/<br /><br />Have a nice day<br />John Paul Fullerton<br />j-fullerton@tamu.edu

Great post! I&#39;ve also tried stuffing a chicken in my smaller crockpot here and not succeeded, but I think I usually by the largest one I can find. I&#39;ve made more whole chickens in our 2.5 years here than I ever thought I would. But, like you, have discovered how much cheaper and how far it can go! Thanks for sharing. I might have to try a smaller bird and use your technique/recipe.

I felt like I was violating that poor chicken as I looked down is bottom. :) Well done, though!

Actually I share your fear of whole chickens! My husband and I have a great recipe for roast chicken but when we make it, he gets to deal with the raw bird and I deal with the vegetables or whatever. ;-) I would love to try this recipe, I&#39;m just not sure my crockpot is big enough. I should buy a new, bigger one, since I really like crockpot cooking. Thanks for the tutorial!

I am so proud of you! I used to buy whole chickens in Princeton and then have my mom talk me through cutting it up so I could make fried chicken. I have only tried it one time since and had to keep going back to the on-line computer pictures since my mom was gone. I think cooking it whole has to be the easiest. <br /><br />Thanks for sharing.

Amen. So much harm can be done when we thoughtlessly tear someone down with our tongue. It is indeed a little member which can start a great fire!<br />Here is a link to a little verse which has the same thought.<br />http://mummasplace.blogspot.com/2009/01/grandmas-wisdom.html

I hope your little one is better very soon. <br />My little grandsons had some high temps but related to a virus with sore/ swollen throat and glands and both better now.

Another yummy looking week at your place. I have actually never tried refried beans so I should check that out. I would like to get into more bean type recipes as I try gluten free dishes. Hubby is not into them much.<br />Great to see Macaroni Beef making it again this week!

Deep and true and realistic thoughts. Our walk is often a road of highs and lows. You have expressed it so well.<br />Sometimes I think we are fearful to drink too deep. It might cost us something. But the refreshing and renewal are worth it.<br />Thanks for these thoughts and may the Lord fill your deepest longings as you seek him so earnestly.
