Yesterday was Presidents’ Day which meant the kids had no school. Great! I said, to the oldest, my teenaged son, You make dinner.

He agreed, but only if he could use “a box” which meant taking fresh chicken breasts, a box of Slow Cooker Helper and following the instructions.

We had chicken and dumplings when I got home from work and it was just lovely to have dinner ready to eat after a long day. He was proud of himself too, bragging to his girlfriend’s mom that he’d made dinner for the whole family by himself.

Hungry? Grab a box and give yourself a break.
