You know you have a large family when...

  • ...your children feel sorry for families with only six or seven children.
  • ...people ask if you're competing with the Duggars.
  • ...even your friends aren't sure how many children you have.
  • ...your family no longer fits in a 15 passenger van.
  • ..complete strangers feel welcome to comment on your fertility and contraceptive methods.
  • ...two of your daughters go for a walk...and get asked by a neighbor if they're foster kids.
  • ...you have to carry three health insurance cards in your wallet- because that's how many it takes to fit everyone's name.
  • ...you take the wrong child to the dentist...simply because your handwriting on the calendar was messy and both started with a "j".
  • ...grocery shopping for 30 children and 12 adults for a two day camp constitutes a "small" shopping trip for you.
  • You find yourself relating some small incident to your husband and starting with the words, "Well, I only boiled twenty-six eggs for breakfast..."
  • ...you buy a 40 pound box of bananas intending to make banana bread and freeze a bunch for smoothies...but your children eat them all first.
  • ...you find an afternoon root canal relaxing.
  • ...it takes you twenty-three minutes on the phone to schedule your children's dental appointments.
  • ...you've given up on using your toaster entirely and make all of your toast under the broiler in you oven.
  • ...you are seriously tempted by the stacking cribs you see at Goodwill for $19.99.
  • ...you find yourself thinking, "Wow, the house is so quiet and peaceful with only nine children".
  • ...you have enough children to constitute not one, but TWO large families.
  • ...you have a laundry basket devoted entirely to lonely socks seeking their mate.
  • ...when you got to buy your children those cool "spin toothbrushes" because you think they get their teeth so much cleaner...but the store doesn't carry enough styles/colors for your children to each have a different toothbrush.
  • ...when you can't take all of your children to the doctor's office at the same time because the waiting room has only 10 seats.
  • ...when you still have seven children that are required by law to sit in a carseat or booster seat.
  • ...you call the doctor to get your children tetnus shots, and they tell you they don't have enough in the office and need to order more from the health department.
  • ...you take up more than one entire pew in church.
  • ...you take only half of your children to the library, and STILL get asked if they're all yours.
  • ...you go to fill your children's flouride prescription at the phamacy and you clean them out of every pill they have...and it's still not enough.
  • ...you spend sixty dollars on socks...and not everyone gets new socks.
  • ...you go shopping at Costco and the cashier asks if you're having a soccer barbecue.

Really Easy, Really Delicious

Dinner idea.


Img_0248

Loaded up and ready for my freezer.


This recipe is slightly adapted from my favorite cookbook, Fix Freeze Feast.
Buy fresh chicken tenders on sale (1.98 lb)
Roll chicken tenders in flour
Roll chicken tenders in beaten egg
Roll chicken tenders in seasoned bread crumbs
Freeze on cookie sheets
Once frozen, remove from cookie sheets and place in Ziplock bags
Return to freezer.

To cook, thaw chicken
Cook at 350 for 20-25 minutes.

You children will love these, I promise. These are better than anything you can buy at the store, they are made from fresh chicken breast (not who knows what garbage, pressed together and "chicken flavored") so you know exactly what you are feeding your children and yourself).

The best part? After some strenuous math exercises, I calculated that each chicken finger, cost 40 cents. How's that for a bargain?
