Knock Knock ...
Today I (Lindsey) was in a really wierd mood. I'm sitting on the floor watching Ben put together our new bed side table thingy(see previous post) and decided maybe he would like to hear a knock knock joke while he's working hard. This is how it went:
Lindsey: Knock Knock.
Ben: Nothing
Lindsey: Babe I want to tell you a joke... KNOCK KNOCK
Ben: Who's there?
Lindsey: Bananas
Ben: Linds...
Lindsey: Babe please
Ben: Bananas who?
Lindsey: Knock Knock
Ben: Who's there?
Lindsey: Bananas
Ben: Bananas who?
Lindsey: Knock Knock
Ben: Who's there?
Lindsey: Orange
Ben: Orange who?
Lindsey: Orange you glad I didnt' say bananas
Ben: What? Linds. No. What? Stop
HAHAHAHAHAHA... Oh my gosh we could not stop laughing!
Lindsey: Knock Knock.
Ben: Nothing
Lindsey: Babe I want to tell you a joke... KNOCK KNOCK
Ben: Who's there?
Lindsey: Bananas
Ben: Linds...
Lindsey: Babe please
Ben: Bananas who?

If you give a mouse a cookie...
If you take Linds and Ben to Ikea... they are going to want to buy a couch...and a bed frame...and new bedsheets.... and clean out their entire closet... and make a flipping mess out of their apartment... and realize they have way too much stuff... one day they may need it though so its a matter of storing it in their apartment somewhere...
In the midst of all this I have locked myself out of the apartment twice yes 1,2, TWICE in the past like week all while ben is at work till midnight and I have to work at jetblue(from home) luckily my momma works for jetblue and I was able to go over there :D
Anywhoo... so yes we bought a new couch and a really awesome bed frame and new sheets and comforter! I'll have to post pics later. We also decided to try and get a little more organized which ended up being a HUGE project! I mean HUGE! Holy guacamole we have a ton of Stuff!
I tried to take on all of this while Ben was at work and got frusterated and realized I needed help. Ben came home to our mattress on the floor and our old bedframe blocking the doorway to our bedroom because I couldn't get the screws out but I wanted to move it! Ya...Ben is so patient with me. I love him so very much!

Chicken Parmigiana with Fresh Tomato Sauce
What you need:
1/3 cup grated parmesean cheeese
1 pkt shake n bake extra crispy
4 small boneless chicken breast halves
1 small onion chopped
1/4 cup Italian Dressing
2 Tomatoes chopped
2 Tbsp chopped basil
1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
Heat Oven to 400F Add Parmesean to coating mix in shaker bag; shake gently to combine. Coat Chicken with Parmesean mixture, then bake as directed on package.
Meanwhile cook onions and dressing in large skillet on medium- high heat 4 min or until onions are crisp-tender. Stir in tomatoes; cook 2 to 3 min or until heated through, stirring occasionaly. Stir in basil. Keep warm.
Top chicken with sauce and cheese.
Lindsey's two cents:
About 2 minutes before taking the chicken out of the oven put the mozzarella cheese on top so it can melt.
We had it with a tossed salad: romaine lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, feta cheese (LOVE IT), and crispy onions!
It was super easy and extremely tasty!

Tuesdays Top Ten thats really on Monday
I know I know way late for last week but way early for this week right???
Top Ten Random/whats new with us :)
1- Half Marathon is in just under 2 weeks away we are now just in the process of letting our legs rest and not doing any more long runs until the half marathon. SO EXCITED! It's going to be great!
2- School is freaking crazy! We took online classes because we couldn't figure out when to actually go over to the school... you still have to spend time doing your classes even if they are online... duh! We have one class at the school which we hardly ever go to because we just watch movies. We have about 1 more month to go of this semester.
3- I have 2 more classes to take until I get my Associates! WOOHOO! (If I don't completely fail this semester :P) and Ben is pretty close as well!
4- Ben's looking into going into the Police Academy. It's nice if you can get a sponser but if not we may just go through SLCC. :)
5- Ben started his new schedule at work ... so we pretty much worked opposite shifts last week... SUCKED!!! But this week should be better I was able to jiggle my work schedule a little bit.
6- Ben got an email about an amazing cruise deal to the Bahamas in September so... We bought it! YAY! I can't wait we are looking forward to it! We need a vacation!
7- Ben and I are also thinking about doing a medical assisting program together (yes and he still wants to do the police academy on top of this of course not at the same time so we'll see)I really want to do nursing but everywhere I've looked its a freaking long wait and I really want to get into the medical field so I'm doing this and then going from there. Ben wants to do it with me so that will be way fun! Not sure when we are starting though...either summer or fall.
8- Our fish Edgar died. We've had him for over a year, I think, Ben joked if he had died he wouldn't tell me just go buy me a new one, I'm pretty sure it was the same one. Ben flushed him down the toilet... I kinda think we should have buried him. But later that night Ben bought me a new fish and he's blue I haven't named him yet. I hope he doesn't feel weird living in Edgars old tank...
9 - Eat right for your blood type... I can't find a good website for it but the book is pretty sweet. I've been trying to live by it for the last week and I feel really good. We don't know what type of blood Ben is yet so he hasn't started to do it yet. Check it out very very interesting.
10 - New babies... Amy and Trev had a new baby Ava Morgan Parry in January and Karlie and Jason are due July 24th! YAY! None for me and Ben so don't even ask not for like another 5 years k! :)
Here's a cute picture of AVA!

Strawberry Whipped Sensation
My first recipe turned out pretty dang yummy! We took it over to the Parry family's sunday dinner for dessert and everyone loved it!
Saturday night Ben and I went and got the ingredients and then came home and smashed strawberries...we did this around 10pm and got a knock on our door that we did't answer..oops! I would also suggest putting them in a baggie and smashing them becuase they kinda got all over the place! I actually told Ben right after we smashed the strawberries to put the Oreos in a baggie and smash them and he says to me why didn't we do that with the strawberries...Right...
anyways then we mixed the milk,lemon juice,condensed milk,strawberries together poured them into the pan that had a lining of tin foil, melted the butter mixed it with the oreos poured on top of the whipped mixture and put in the freezer over night.
Right before serving the next day I frosted it with cool whip and put strawberries on top!
Here's some pics!
Here's the Recipe:
what you need!
4 cups fresh strawberries, divided
1 can (14 oz.) sweetened condensed milk
1/4 cup lemon juice
1 tub (8 oz.) COOL WHIP Whipped Topping, thawed, divided
8 OREO Cookies, finely chopped
1 Tbsp. butter, melted
make it!
LINE 9x5-inch loaf pan with foil, with ends of foil extending over sides. Mash 2 cups berries in large bowl. Add milk, juice and 2 cups COOL WHIP; mix well. Pour into prepared pan.
MIX chopped cookies and butter. Spoon over COOL WHIP mixture. Cover with ends of foil; gently press cookie mixture into COOL WHIP mixture. Freeze 6 hours or until firm.
INVERT dessert onto plate when ready to serve; remove pan and foil. Frost dessert with remaining COOL WHIP. Slice remaining berries; arrange over dessert. Freeze leftovers.
