Stressed and Striped

Oh my gosh I've had no time to write. I've been a little bit of a procrastinator lately, and I SHOULD be doing homework right now but I need a break, haha. So about 2 weeks ago, I threw an outfit together that actually got a lot of compliments. Luckily I took a picture of it. Please excuse my dirty mirror (thanks, Sophia!). I promise I've cleaned it since taking this picture :)
Necklace: Walmart ($7)
Top: JcPenney ($12)
Pants: Walmart ($13)
Flats: H&M ($12) 

My pants are actually not cropped, but they're really long on me so I folded them under. Being short makes everything fit me awkward! UGH!

Other than fashion, I've been trying to come up with a plan to get my house a bit more organized because I'm behind on laundry and just dyyyying from clutter. So next post, HOPEFULLY I'll talk a little bit about some tips for keeping the house clean without falling far behind. 

Is it spring break yet?!

DELICIOUS Crock Pot Chicken Parmesan

Can you tell I've been busy? I have had ZERO time to write and no internet at home :(
But speaking of being busy, last Thursday I felt like supermom: I had dinner going and everyone out of the house within 30 minutes. Woo!!!
What did I make? Crockpot Chicken Parmesan. It was DELICIOUS. And we had left overs for two days. Thank God I love pasta.

Here is what you need:
-Boneless/skinless chicken breast tenders
- Italian style bread crumbs
- Parmesan cheese (graded or shredded, it's up to you)
- Mozzarella cheese
- Spaghetti sauce
- Pasta

Here's the steps:
- Put chicken, 1 1/2 cups of breadcrumbs, and 1/2 cups of parmesan cheese in a ziplock and SHAKE it up. Honestly, I just eye-balled this stuff, so use as much or little as you want.
- Put the chicken into the crock pot
- Pour a jar of your favorite spaghetti sauce on top

Cook on low for 8-10 hours. I cooked mine for about 9 because I went to class and then to the store. It's really up to you. If you do it too long, the chicken kind of falls apart but for this meal, that's fine. :)

Once you're home and ready to eat, put water on to boil for pasta.
As the pasta is cooking, put as much parmesan and mozzarella cheese on top of the chicken and sauce. By the time your pasta is ready, you're cheese will be nice and melted. Put your chicken and sauce over the pasta and eat. :)

Sophia LOVED this. I didn't take a picture, but I'm sure you get the concept! :)

ENJOY
