"To Do Tuesday", we're attacking our to-do lists each week, blogging about our lists and what we've got going on, and sharing it with each other to help keep each other accountable. Everyone should go Crazy Adventures in Parenting to link up in the Mister Linky as the central "To-Do Tuesday Hub" so we can visit who's participating and offer encouragement to each other throughout the week. Don't forget to add the "To-Do Tuesday" button to your post, linking back to this post!

I'd love to know how you are going to cook those drumsticks. My family is made up of drumstick hounds, and I'm always living one recipe away from a breakdown. Any thoughts? Thanks so much.
I posted this on your blog She said, She Said http://thesisterproject.com/roach/doggone-dog-days/#comments
But I wanted to put this up here for more Drumstick lovers!
Ok Marion… here are my drumstick tips!
I am doing these grilled Drumsticks tonight. I just learned to grill this year and I am IN LOVE with my lovely new grill. It gets used at least 4 times a week! Here is a recipe I found on Food Network today that is going to be in my stomach tonight. The boyfriend is pitching for his team tonight and my son is going to watch him at the game, so it’s just me and the 5 other kids!

Now, I have another one I love to use. It is from the “A Year of Slow cooking” blog. I have done this recipe twice and am in LOVE with this dish.

I hope your family enjoys these, if you add anything to it, I’d love to hear variations, with 7 kids I can always use a fun twist!
wish I was as organized as you
Nice list - I am hoping to get my list more organized as our routine falls into place once school gets started.
Very thorough list! Your couch to 5k program sounds interesting. Is it something you've come up with?
