Great Soup!!

Dad made this soup tonight and it was really good. It was quick and easy and ready to eat in about a half hour. Try it!


Quick Chicken Noodle Soup

Heat the broth mixture in the microwave to jump-start the cooking. Meanwhile, sauté the aromatic ingredients in your soup pot to get this dish under way. Though we like the shape of fusilli, you can also make this soup with wide egg noodles, rotini, or even orzo.
2 cups water
3 (14 1/2-ounce) cans chicken broth
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 cup chopped onion
1 cup chopped celery
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 medium carrot, chopped
6 ounces rotini pasta
3 skinless, boneless chicken breast chop and skillet fry
2 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley

1. Combine 2 cups water and chicken broth in a microwave-safe dish, and microwave at HIGH for 5 minutes.
2. While broth mixture heats, heat a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add oil to pan; swirl to coat. Add onion, celery, salt, pepper, and carrot; sauté 3 minutes or until almost tender, stirring frequently. Add hot broth mixture and pasta; bring to a boil. Cook 7 minutes or until pasta is almost al dente. Stir in chicken; cook 1 minute or until thoroughly heated. Stir in parsley.

Cooper and I LOVE the snow.....

Only I don't get my miles in......

Which one do I want???

And now Apple has a tablet.......AND an ipad.

You Gotta love Apple

Apple is sooo cool. Now they are making the ipod touch an augmentative device for students to use for communication and replace the old huge, heavy dynavox.

From Apple......
"Useful to everyone. Right from the start.
The arrival of Mac OS X Snow Leopard ushers in a new era of accessibility for students of all abilities. Every Mac comes equipped with dozens of assistive technologies—many of which you won’t find in other operating systems, at any price. And now with the development of universal access features for iPod and iPhone, Apple is taking these technologies to a new level."

Mmmm...maybe now I can pull out my iphone!

Happy New Year!!! Dad and I are taking down the tree and organizing our offices. He is putting a desk up in the corner of the family room where the black chest of drawers used to be. Should be nice. Hope you all have a great year!!
