Foamerators!!



This was alot of fun for the kids! They make cool foam snakes. You will need: scissors, empty Plastic water or soda bottle(choose thick ones, the thinner ones won't work!), an old towel, rubber band, water and dish soap.

Use scissors to cut the bottom off of the bottle. Cover the open end with a circular piece of towel that's a few inches wider than the bottle. Secure the towel with a rubber band and dampen it with water, then dip it into a shallow bowl of dish soap. Blow through the mouth of the bottle to create snakes of tiny bubbles.
Lemonade Chicken
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
6 oz. frozen lemonade, thawed
3 Tbsp. brown sugar
1 tbsp. vinegar
1/4 c. ketchup

Place chicken in greased slow cooker. Stir lemonade concentrate, brown sugar, vinegar, and ketchup together. Mix well. pour over chicken. Cover and cook on high heat 3-4 hours, or on low heat 6-8 hours.
*Serving suggestion: Thicken the liquid and serve as a sauce for potatoes or rice.

I know the sauce sounds strange, but it was really good!!
