DuPage Children's Museum

  Sitting in the BIG chair.....they thought this was way cool   So today I was finally able to take the girls to the DuPage Children's Museum.  We had received a free voucher for our entire family to go and I thought the perfect time to was when the girls were on Winter Break from school.  They had a blast.  Eva went a few years ago when she was about 2 1/2 but she doesn't remember it.  It was Maggie and my first time their and I can't wait to take them again.  I would like to take them at the end of Jan when they have the Sea Beast Puppet Company perform.  I have am putting a few of the many pictures I took below.  I think their favorite part was the area with the water tables and bubbles also the BIG chair.                               Making music in the Rhythm Room                                      Coloring with Light                                   Maggie is shadow dancing                            Playing with a variety of colors and lights

I found this recipe on the Campbells website, and thought I would try.  It was very easy to make and it did turn out great.  Hope you will try this recipe and enjoyed like I did. Sweet and Tangy Chicken   1 tablespoon butter 1 1/4 pounds skinless, boneless chicken breast halves 1 can (10 3/4 ounces) Campbell's® Condensed Tomato Soup (Regular or Healthy Request®) 1/4 cup water 1 tablespoon packed brown sugar 1 tablespoon vinegar 1 cup regular long-grain white rice , prepared according to package directions (about 3 cups)   Heat the butter in a 10-inch skillet over medium-high heat.  Add the chicken and cook for 10 minutes or until well browned on both sides. Stir the soup, water, brown sugar and vinegar in the skillet and heat to a boil.  Reduce the heat to low.  Cover and cook for 5 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through.  Serve the chicken and sauce with the rice.
