Easy Chicken Pot Pie Recipe
My kids love this chicken pot pie recipe but we normally buy it from the store. Since I am on a health kick again, and hopefully for good this time, we made it homemade. I made this one with a bottom crust and it was too soggy so this recipe omits that bottom crust. This is a very easy chicken pot pie recipe to make and covers your vegetable, meat and bread serving at dinner, so you could technically have this and that’s it. You do not need a lot of cooking experience to make it, which is the way I like to do things. I use organic chicken and…

Review of Tech Gadget USB Flash Drive Bracelet
I was looking for a USB drive that I could put around my neck and ran into this one that is a bracelet from Memoryonhand and think it is pretty cool. Not only is it a bracelet but it is stretchy so won’t feel too snug on your hand and is water resistant so if you are outside in the rain you won’t have to worry about the drive getting ruined. MOB bands come in 34 styles and colors and gigabite choices include 2GB, 4GB, and 8GB. They are compatible with Windows and Mac systems. I can see this being a great present for a college student or student just entering middle or high school.…
