At 11:30ish, we decided to get dressed and see how the trailer made it through the storm. Impressively, it fared quite well. As long as we were out there, lets work on the back until the storm hits again. Needless to say, it never hit again! It only sprinkled a couple times. We worked until 5 tonight, taking a 15 minute break to eat some wonderful soup...chickadilla soup. Here's the recipe, seriously, this is one of the best tasting soups we have ever tried!
Chickadilla Soup
1lb. boneless skinless chicken breasts
30 oz. diced tomatoes
10 oz. mild enchilada sauce
4 oz. chopped mild green chilies
1 quart chicken broth
2 15 oz. cans of pinto beans
10 oz. frozen corn
1/2 med. onion chopped
1 tbs. chopped fresh cilantro
1 tsp. each of cumin, chili powder & salt
1/2 tsp. black pepper
Directions:
Place all ingredients into a 6 quart slow cooker. Mix. Cook on low for 6 - 8 hours or on high for 3 - 4 hours. Once the chicken is fulled cooked, remove & shred, then return to pot and stir.
Serve with fresh chopped cilantro, shredded cheese and sour cream.
(Generously, serves 8. Freezes well.)
Okay, back to the trailer story. ..
We worked diligently and FINISHED the framing for the back end! I cannot tell you how excited we are!!! This weekend we will put the paneling up on the back end and install the bed!
And, now - pictures!
The wide board is to secure the bed and the tail lights. We even finished the wiring in the back end too! |
Apparently, I don't get to use the camera when Cynthia looks bad! (lol) She just gets to when I look bad! |
Tarped up for a few days until we have a couple afternoons for us to work on it. Nothing like using every tarp we own! Yep, it looks good, taking my Kleenex and going home! |
