I woke up before 6, because my brain thinks it's a weekday. But I got this view from the back porch, so I'm ok with it. :)
It was a long, crazy week. Hoping I settle in to my job soon and that I can meet the expectations that have been made for me.
But for now, I'm so happy it's Saturday. We are going to Nashville with some friends today! I'll take pictures, of course. :)
But I have a recipe for ya. I made a very similar recipe before, but this time, it seemed so much better!!!
Slow cooker Sesame Orange Chicken

(This is all I will share--- you should buy this book asap!!!)
** I recommend doubling the recipe!!!

2. Place remaining ingredients, except sesame seeds, in a bowl and wisk together. Pour over chicken
3. Turn chicken to ensure even coating.
4. Cook on low for 4 hours
