Harajuku cutie

Maisie has not asked to dress up as anything special for Halloween which is good because a few months ago I ordered a few costumes/dress-up outfits for her off a clearance sale and tucked them away for Halloween.  Today I pulled them out and she was thrilled when she saw them. 

This Harajuku cutie costume was the first one she wanted to try on and has been dancing around the house wearing it all morning.  We’re heading off to swimming followed by gymnastics and she has asked to wear her costume for everyone to see.  Oh the fun of being six!  I'm thrilled that she loves her costumes and I’m sure over the course of the weekend she’ll be switching between all three of her new outfits so more pictures to come.

New recipe over on Cook Lisa Cook for “Rotisserie” Chicken and wow is it ever delicious and versatile.  I love using “Rotisserie” Chicken when I make my Cheaters Chicken Soup which I use as the base for many of my soups including my Fire Roasted Tomato and Chicken Tortilla Soup.  Once you make and taste this chicken you’ll never go back to the store bought ones.  Click on the picture to be taken to the recipe.
