Coupon Clippin' and Coffee Sippin'

It's Sunday and like the Bangels said "wish it were Sunday, my I don't have to run day".  Well, I don't have to run today and I am using this time to organize my weekly menu, clip some coupons and drink endless amounts of coffee.  Did you know you can go to http://www.hy-vee.com/ and get weekly coupon match-ups?  It matches our ad to the Sunday paper coupons.  Take a look under Helpful Ideas.

Back to my list.  What to make, what to bake, and since it is a busy week, what to fake.  These are the questions I ask myself.  I know I am a chef, but I can't cook from scratch all the time.  Just incase you are wondering, you can still be a domestic diva and cheat a recipe or two every now and then.  One of my favorite cheats is using rotisserie chicken.  Believe it or not, Stacey and I have come up with 101 tasty things to do with a rotisserie chicken.  So yes, what I am saying is you can prepare a fast chicken dish almost twice a week for a year and never repeat a recipe!  Here is one for tonight.
