Old-School "Must See" TV
Think back to when you were a kid & pre-teen. What show(s) could you not miss?
For me it was The Muppet Show. If I didn't see my Muppets, I just wasn't right for the week. LOL
Keep in mind this was before the VCR, so if I wasn't near a TV 10 minutes before show time, I would act a plum fool. Don't mess with My Muppets! LOL
Scooby-Doo was another one of my favs. I loved trying to solve the mysteries.

Almond-Crusted Chicken Fingers
Description:
Instead of batter-dipped, deep-fried nuggets, we coat chicken tenders in a seasoned almond and whole-wheat flour crust and then oven-fry them to perfection. With half the fat of standard breaded chicken tenders, you can enjoy to your (healthy) heart's content.
Ingredients:
Canola oil cooking spray
1/2 cup sliced almonds
1/4 cup whole-wheat flour
1 1/2 teaspoons paprika
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
1 1/2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
4 large egg whites
1 pound chicken tenders, (see Ingredient Note)
Directions:
Preheat oven to 475°F. Line a baking sheet with foil. Set a wire rack on the baking sheet and coat it with cooking spray.
Place almonds, flour, paprika, garlic powder, dry mustard, salt and pepper in a food processor; process until the almonds are finely chopped and the paprika is mixed throughout, about 1 minute. With the motor running, drizzle in oil; process until combined. Transfer the mixture to a shallow dish.
Whisk egg whites in a second shallow dish. Add chicken tenders and turn to coat. Transfer each tender to the almond mixture; turn to coat evenly. (Discard any remaining egg white and almond mixture.) Place the tenders on the prepared rack and coat with cooking spray; turn and spray the other side.
Bake the chicken fingers until golden brown, crispy and no longer pink in the center, 20 to 25 minutes.
Tips & Notes
Ingredient note: Chicken tenders, virtually fat-free, are a strip of rib meat typically found attached to the underside of the chicken breast, but they can also be purchased separately. Four 1-ounce tenders will yield a 3-ounce cooked portion. Tenders are perfect for quick stir-fries, chicken satay or kid-friendly breaded “chicken fingers.”

Waiting on the "Other Side"
I'm a die-hard fan of CBS's Ghost Whisperer. It even scares me sometimes, but I still love it. If you are not familiar with the show, it's about a young woman who can see and communicate with "earth-bound" spirits - those who haven't crossed over due to unfinished business, mostly.
Here's my question - if you are believer, when your time comes, who is the one (1) person you think will be waiting for you in "the light" and/or who is the one (1) person you want waiting for you?
For me, the list is long but if I have to choose one, it would be my daddy. I had so little time with him, but I still miss him so.
PS Happy Valentine's Day!
