Recipe(tried): Chicken Fingers w/Honey Mustard...

Hello Everyone,

I have not had a chance to post for a while since we had two trees fall on our property after a small tornado touched down on Wednesday, one of the trees fell on one corner of our house, the computer room, tore two holes in the roof, cracked the ceiling, water coming in soaking the carpets in two rooms...not a pretty picture! We have been eating cold cuts and trying not to make more of a mess since all the teacher materials and resources I have were stored in the closet of the computer room. Oh!....what a mess....

Anyway, here is tonight's menu:
