Oh, honey! It's chicken!

     This recipe is so simple and so tasty, you'd be insane not to try it! The sauce that is poured over the chicken is so yummy. It's the perfect balance between sweet and salty and I can't believe I hadn't thought of it sooner. The next time I make this recipe, I'll definitely be bumping up the flavor of the ginger! Sometimes, ginger can be too pungent in dishes, especially when it's grated in something. I walked on the safer side of the road this time, but I suggest adding ½ tsp. of ginger. 

     A little about our lives now! We had a few issues with the current house we are under contract with and weren't quite sure we were going to be able to follow through with the purchase. Well, the kinks worked themselves out and we don't have an exact closing date, but we are "full steam ahead" and have put it our 30-day notice to vacate our apartment and have begun shopping for furniture for our new home. I'm so excited!
