I love a good casserole, where you throw a bunch of stuff into a casserole dish, and forget it. That's this kind of dish. It has all sorts of yummy down home flavors from the stuffing mix, and tastes like your grandmother cooked it all day Saturday for Sunday's dinner.  However, it only takes about 30 minutes to prepare. We served this over rice, but honestly, it's perfect on it's own. This really reminds me of chicken and dressing, similar to what my mother used to make during the holidays when I was growing up. It's just pure comfort food. And when it's chilly out, this is the perfect dish to enjoy.

Lucky for us we enjoyed this last week during Florida's cold snap, because as of today Kelsie wore a tank top and shorts to gymnastics this morning. That's how warm it was. I'm pretty sure that we are going to skip through spring and wake up next wake and summer be here. That's usually the way the weather goes here. We never have a smooth transition.

Although Sunday's weather was perfect. We went on a half a day trip over about an hour and a half away from here to Cape San Blas and St. George Island. It was nice to get away for a little bit and enjoy our little family's company. The girls got along well. Kelsie got to play on two different play grounds, we crossed over several long bridges, and it was great to just talk to one another with electronics in the way. You learn so much about yourself, and your kids when there aren't any distractions like cell phones, and video games. Anyway. This was taken on the beach at Cape San Blas. It's such a beautiful part of the coast. They haven't built any crazy condos, and the beaches aren't littered with garbage. It's just a beautiful place that I went to with my parents when growing up. We would camp, and it was always fun! I love to take my kids on little adventures like these from time to time. 

If you are like us and homeschool, then this other place is the perfect place to go if your in the area, and study Marine Biology. Kelsie loves looking at all the critters in their natural habitat. This is on the way to Cape San Blas, and we discovered it several years ago.  Salinas Park is located just off the turn as your headed to Cape San Blas.
