My blog theme for the week is the 4th of July. I used to celebrate holidays on the week they happened. After thinking about it, it made more sense to share my holiday ideas the week before the holiday. This is JDaniel's 4th of July tin a week early.

I am part of the Swanson's Mommy Blogger Challenge. The challenge was to come up with a recipe using Swanson's canned chicken. I decided to make a try and make chicken salad with a twist. What did I come up with? It is called Fruitful Chicken Salad. My family has been eating a lot of it as I try to tweak the recipe.
JDaniel even ended up with Continue Reading
