Winner, Winner, (Roasted) Chicken Dinner

The picture above is the reason why I can enjoy my job as a teacher as much as I do.

(And although I haven't posted much about my teaching this year,

I L.O.V.E. my job, my students, and everything about working again as a teacher!!!)

Every day,

I come home to an appetizing, and delicious meal prepared for and

shopped for by my darling Tin Man.

I don't even know how to roast a chicken (a whole chicken with the bones and all- so no recipe to follow below-),

but he does.

Add his loaded mashed potatoes, and his wonderfully addictive Cesar salad,

and dinner is served...

...Right about the time I get home with the kids from school.

Sometimes I forget to tell him how much I appreciate him,

and all his cooking around here.

But when he is out of town,

and I find myself cooking,

or stopping at the grocery store after school

when all I want to do is GET HOME-

I remember that I really have it good with him.

He is not perfect,

nor am I-

but what we have works for us.

And I love it.

(And I love his Roasted Chicken Dinner!!!)
