How sad and true of the times we live.

The paradox of our time in history is that we have taller buildings but shorter tempers, wider Freeways , but narrower viewpoints. We spend more, but have less, we buy more, but enjoy less. We have bigger houses and smaller families, more conveniences, but less time. We have more degrees but less sense, more knowledge, but less judgment, more experts, yet more problems, more medicine, but less wellness.
We drink too much, smoke too much, spend too recklessly, laugh too little, drive too fast, get too angry, stay up too late, get up too tired, read too little, watch TV too much, and pray too seldom.
We have multiplied our possessions, but reduced our values. We talk too much, love too seldom, and hate too often.
We've learned how to make a living, but not a life. We've added years to life not life to years. We've been all the way to the moon and back, but have trouble crossing the street to meet a new neighbor. We conquered outer space but not inner space. We've done larger things, but not better things.
We've cleaned up the air, but polluted the soul. We've conquered the atom, but not our prejudice. We write more, but learn less. We plan more, but accomplish less. We've learned to rush, but not to wait. We build more computers to hold more information, to produce more copies than ever, but we communicate less and less.
These are the times of fast foods and slow digestion, big men and small character, steep profits and shallow relationships. These are the days of two incomes but more divorce, fancier houses, but broken homes. These are days of quick trips, disposable diapers, throwaway morality, one night stands, overweight bodies, and pills that do everything from cheer, to quiet, to kill. It is a time when there is much in the showroom window and nothing in the stockroom. A time when technology can bring this letter to you, and a time when you can choose either to share this insight, or to just hit delete...
Remember; spend some time with your loved ones, because they are not going to be around forever.
Remember, say a kind word to someone who looks up to you in awe, because that little person soon will grow up and leave your side.
Remember, to give a warm hug to the one next to you, because that is the only treasure you can give with your heart and it doesn't cost a cent.
Remember, to say, ' I love you ' to your partner and your loved ones, but most of all mean it. A kiss and an embrace will mend hurt when it comes from deep inside of you.
Remember to hold hands and cherish the moment for someday that person will not be there again.
Give time to love, give time to speak! And give time to share the precious thoughts in your mind.
AND ALWAYS REMEMBER:
Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.

What's your favorite romantic movie?

I love you like crazy cakes or more like Strawberry Shortcakes

This is one of my recipes for strawberry shortcake...this is my fast and yummy

I usually hull and destem fresh strawberries then put them in a tupperware cover with 1/2 cup sugar, 3 tbsp of water and sometime to thicken I use corn syrup then stir and cover in fridge for a day. If you don't want to wait you can buy the strawberries in syrup...just as yummy

Ingrediets
2 1/3 of Bisquick mix
1/2 cup of milk
3 tbsp of sugar
3 tbsp of butter...melted

Preheat oven at 400f

Stir all ingredients together to make soft dough then drop spoonfuls on to baking sheet. Bake for 10-12 mins. Slit warm cakes fill with strawberries and syrup and top with yummy cool whip.

Sometimes for fun I add chopped white chocolate to mix and bake; all I can say is mmmmmm. Also they make great scones with fresh blueberries in the mix for tea time.

Chicken Scallopine

I use boneless chicken tenders
1/2 -1 cup of flour
1 tbsp of salt
1tsp of pepper
1/2 -1 cup of Marsala wine
about a stick and half of butter
sliced mushrooms
scallions chopped


First pound chicken, then cut up into bite size, in a mixing bowl mix flr, salt, and pepper then coat chicken. In a large skillet melt about 4 tbsp of butter the saute coated chicken till cooked then move chicken to a bowl. Add more butter about another 4 tbsp of butter back to skillet, melt then add mushrooms, and chopped scallions saute for a min. Then add chicken back in 1/2 cup of the wine, and the rest of the butter. Cover and simmer for about 15-20 mins. Make sure to give it a stir once in a while. I serve it with thin spaghetti.
When budget permits I use veal too. Also I make it pretty plain because hubby doesn't care for much. But experiment add some veggies to it or what ever strikes you fancy and let me know I'd love to hear.
