It’s a $40 gift card to some pretty cool online stores.
So, read up and be sure to come back to this post to leave all your comments!
My little sister got into town yesterday and we have just been having a ball! It is SO MUCH FUN having her here. We are bound to stay up late, eat too much and laugh A LOT. Once we got back from the airport it was lunch time and this is what we came up with!
I am so impressed with this lunch, I can’t even wait to tell you all about it! I always get sick of the same old lunches and this certainly fit the bill of out of the ordinary. I loved ALL the tastes and textures in this dish and so did my sister: the creamy coconut milk, the spicy curry, the fresh vegetables, the sweet toasted coconut, and the crunchy almonds. YUM. All the flavors I love. Actually, I tend to love ALL flavors so my opinion shouldn’t count a whole lot. But my sister and my husband loved this. And, after you cook your chicken, this all comes together in about 10 minutes. How about that! A really great lunch that everyone will love!
