Day #50 – Swiss Chicken + Wrigley Update + Anniversary

Well, I’m halfway to the 100 days. It always seems like time moves so fast lately.

I have to add this recipe because It was SO good. It’s from the Tasty Recipes from The Texas Hill country cookbook from 1999.

I’m not a huge fan of chicken dishes, but I will definitely add this one to the rotation of meals. I think it would also be good if you cut the chicken in pieces also and used shredded Swiss cheese. Anyway, however you make it, it will be a hit.

If you don’t know who Wrigley is, he is our neighbors very neglected dog. VERY neglected! I had called animal control for a wellness check for him. They were not happy with what they saw and gave them stipulations that they must abide by. Well, nothing had been done. I emailed the animal control officer who I had talked to and she told me that they have a visit scheduled for tomorrow to check on the progress. Tonight when Donny and I were leaving the house I saw that their gate was open and the wife was backing their SUV into the carport. When we got home Wrigley was back in the yard. I’m hoping that he went to the vet or groomers. His coat looks better. We have lived here 5 years and that dog has not had a bath the whole time. How do I know this? I brush him over the fence because they never have. I mowed today and for the past couple of months he hasn’t had energy to get up and come to the fence. I think even if they do eventually comply they still will never take him for a walk, go into the back yard to play with him, he’ll only get the food thrown into the old pot they use for his bowl with not even a backward glance.

Today is also the 9 year anniversary of being rescued off of our roof after having to spend the night on it.

I am so thankful that Donny had foresight, although we honestly didn’t think we would need it, to put the ladder outside by the roof so we could climb up. This picture was taken in the early morning because it was late at night when the flood hit. I will always be thankful for the Cajun Navy and just all of the people of Baton Rouge that worked together to rebuild the city.
