Crock Pot chicken fajitas

This recipe has been floating around Pinterest for about the last week. So I decided to give it a try. It was pretty darn good. The only thing I'd change about the recipe is adding the peppers about an hour to 45 minutes before making the fajitas. I detest mushy peppers and cooking them along with the chicken is a guaranteed recipe for mushiness.

Also, it didn't take eight hours to cook. I used fresh chicken breasts and they were done in about four hours.

Rain boot planters

Earlier this spring, a friend of mine was telling me of her plans of creating a rain boot garden. Interested, I asked for more details and she directed me to Pinterest. Luckily, I asked the question in the right place at the right time as I was able to scoop up these four pairs of rain boots for my own rain boot garden. (At the time we were at a charity kids clothes sale).

Today, I finally got around to asking my husband to drill holes through the soles and nail them onto the fence. I added some stones for drainage before filling the boots with soil and planting impatiens. They do make for cute planters.
