While I love grilled chicken recipes, sometimes I crave BBQ chicken but don’t want to fire up the grill. When that happens, I turn to this recipe that gives me that barbeque flare, without the added hassle.

One of my other favorite aspects of this meal is that you can use whatever cut of chicken you like.

Are you a boneless, skinless chicken breast kind of person?

Or love to cook with the whole bird?

Whichever option you choose will end up being delicious.

For me, I’m a dark meat girl and chicken legs are usually cheap and go on sale quite often, making it a great economical choice for feeding friends and family.

Simply arrange whatever your chicken of the day is, into a dish to bake for about 40 minutes while you start to make the sauce.

Sauté the onion and garlic in a little butter, then add in ketchup, vinegar, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, brown sugar and salt.

Bring the sauce to a simmer and cook for about 10 minutes.

After the chicken has cooked for its initial 40 minutes, spoon half of the homemade BBQ sauce over the top of the chicken pieces. Return it to the oven to cook for another 10 minutes.

After that bake, remove the chicken from the oven, and using tongs turn over the pieces and top with remaining sauce.

Return the chicken to the oven to bake for an additional 10 minutes to finish cooking and set the sauce.

Serve along side a lettuce salad or another of your favorite picnic side dishes.

These Saucy BBQ Chicken legs offer a convenient and delicious way to enjoy the flavors of grilled chicken without the added hassle (or heat).

With minimal preparation and a few simple ingredients you can savor tender, juicy, and finger-lickin’ good chicken in no time.

My Farmhouse Table
You ask me Why I Love Her? Well, give me time. I' You ask me Why I Love Her?
 Well, give me time. I'll explain.
Have you seen a Kansas sunset
 Or an Arizona rain?
Have you drifted on a bayou
Down Louisiana way?
Have you watched a cold fog drifting
Over San Francisco Bay?
Have you heard a bobwhite calling
In the Carolina pines,

Or heard the bellow of a diesel
 At the Appalachia mines?
Does the call of Niagara thrill you
When you hear her waters roar?
Do you look with awe and wonder
 At her Massachusetts shore...
Where men who braved a hard new world
First stepped on Plymouth's rock?
And, do you think of them when you stroll
 Along a New York City dock?
Have you seen a snowflake drifting
 In the Rockies, way up high?
Have you seen the sun come blazing down
 From a bright Nevada sky?
Do you hail to the Columbia
As she rushes to the sea?
Or bow your head at Gettysburg
 At our struggle to be free?
Have you seen the mighty Tetons?
Have you watched an eagle soar?
Have you seen the Mississippi
Roll along Missouri's shore?
Have you felt a chill at Michigan
 When on a winter's day
Her waters rage along the shore
 In thunderous display?
Does the word "Aloha" make you warm?
Do you stare in disbelief
When you see the surf
 Come roaring in at Waimea Reef?
From Alaska's cold to the Everglades,
From the Rio Grande to Maine,
My heart cries out, my pulse runs fast
At the might of her domain!
You ask me why I love her?
I've a million reasons why ---
My Beautiful America,
Beneath God's wide, wide sky.

A friend recommended ‘The Cheat Sheet’ by @aut A friend recommended ‘The Cheat Sheet’ by @authorsarahadams to me this past week and let me say it was the perfect pre- Super Bowl and Valentine’s Day read that I couldn’t put down and ended up finishing in a day.

I don’t know if I’ve read a book where I caught myself smiling from cover to cover.

It was sweet (almost cavity inducing), WITTY, deliciously flirty, hard to put down, charming, with great comedic timing, and sexy! 

It’s a friends to lovers and fake dating tropes that is right up any Hallmark lover’s alley with a side helping of NFL. 

I found myself laughing out loud, cheering from the sidelines, and BLUSHING 😊. A touchdown in my book! 🏈

How often are we happy in life just to survive? I get it life is ROUGH- survival mode is sometimes all we can handle in a season, but after I read this quote I thought to myself- am I living too small of a story? Sometimes yes, I get stuck in my routines. The edges, things that push me, things that scare me- it’s uncomfortable. I doubt myself and what I’m capable of… but He doesn’t.  I’m going to cling to that truth as I continue to grow my own story. ❤️

Well, there’s one thing I’ve learned you can never grow if you don’t plant the seeds. So as we kick off a new year here’s your sign to plant the seeds in the areas of your life you want to see grow.

Faith. Relationships. Yourself. 

Sure you may fail more then you succeed, but you’ll never know if you don’t even start. ❤️
