I am my mother's child

Do you know my mom? No? Cause she's the coolest(seriously) person I know. She has always been a big supporter of me(what mom isn't)but she had always told me I could do anything I wanted to do. Like be a doctor, a CEO of a company, or a teacher anything! I have just recently discovered how much we really are alike. She has had a lifetime love affair with antiques. And here lately, I've gotten pretty interested in them too. I got this yesterday at our local antique mall.

It matches all of my blue china that are all antiques too. These are my sugar and tea holders. I got these at an antique store in Montgomery. And I'm bummed because they had a WHOLE set of them, ones that said spices, baking soda, etc...and I was too cheap to buy all of them. They were only $8 a piece. What was I thinking??
Mom got me this. It's flo blue and I LOVE it. But, problem is...I can't afford anything else of this pattern. It seems that it comes from the 1800's some of it, the 1700's and it's REALLY expensive. I found a great flo blue platter and it was $450.00!!! Yikes...I just couldn't explain that one to Adam...I just couldn't.

My mom really likes to cook and growing up I thought her food was gross. Sorry mom! But she has given me this great cook book that is all of her recipes plus others and I LOVE it! I made this last night.It's called Chicken Rollups and it's SO Easy. These are the ONLY ingredients you will need (oops forgot the cheese in the pic) 1. First you boil your chicken for 20 minutes then chop it up.2. Then you take crescent rolls (any kind will do) and put a handful of chicken in them.
3. You mix together cream of chicken soup and then fill up your soup can with milk and mix the two together. Pour that mixture over your chicken in crescent rolls.
4.Last, sprinkle cheese over them and pop them in the oven on 350 for 30 minutes.
They are REALLY good!!

And mentioning my own child. This is Anderson telling about Bear Bryant! Ha!
