Yep, that's right chicken and Doritos. This also came from my friend Natalie's Pinterest. I think I could do another 52 dishes in 52 weeks from her Pinterest alone, heck I might be able to do 365 dishes in 365 days from her Pinterest, except I don't cook/bake every day. So as you can probably guess the recipe calls for chicken and Doritos. It also has cheese, cream of chicken soup, milk, sour cream, canned tomatoes, and taco seasoning. It was a little spicier than I like, but it was pretty good. Truth be told, I don't like things that are very spicy, so even a little spicy seems spicy to me.

Dress Shopping Begins
So I began wedding dress shopping a few weeks ago. I went with my mom, my maid of honor, and one of my bridesmaids. Considering, I had no idea what I wanted, I think it was a good start. I knew I didn't want feathers, anything obnoxiously poofy, and I was pretty sure I didn't want strapless.
Surprisingly, the one shoulder dress looked okay. I thought it would look hideous, but it was all right. Thin straps weren't bad and I also liked the halter style. I still did not purchase a dress, but at least I have a few ideas of what looks good and what doesn't now. We looked at two places, with two very different price levels. One place let us take pictures of me in the dress and one strictly prohibited it. I'm not going to post any of the pictures though, sorry!

Dish 46 Coconut Chicken
I THINK this dish was from my friend Natalie's Pinterest. I seem to be frequenting that page. :) Anyway, I liked the coconut chicken, but I had some issues making it. I made it in a frying pan and the oil was jumping around a little too much for my liking (read, I got splashed a few times and though I suffered no major burns or any minor ones for that matter, just little ouches, it was not pleasant). If I make this again, I plan to bake it instead. Ironically, I'm not a huge coconut fan, but for some reason I like coconut chicken, coconut shrimp (yum!), and even Malibu rum (which is coconut flavored). So I'm not really sure why I don't like coconut by itself, but find it good when it's combined with certain things. I make a lot of chicken so I'm always looking for new things to do with it, hence the coconut chicken. Anyway, it was good. :-)

Dish 45 Caramel Rolls
I was lacking in the inspiration department for new dishes so I poked through a crockpot cookbook that my friend gave me for my birthday last year. I found something called Caramel Rolls, which is kind of like monkey bread. Additionally, I had some leftover biscuits from when my fiancé accidentally bought those instead of crescent rolls. So tah-dah, along comes caramel rolls. Unfortunately, I overcooked them a little bit. I followed the recipe, but I guess I should have turned off the crockpot a little sooner. So while they were okay, I think in the future, I'll just stick with regular monkey bread.
