It takes the entire damn weekend to make both recipes

This is MY time. When I go to sleep, I know I will wake up and have to do STUFF - drive to a work function, do church tasks, grocery shopping, editing/beta work... but for tonight, until I go to sleep, it's my time to do whatever I want. I know this doesn't actually extend the hours in a day, but it's so good to just do what I want.

In this case, I am drooling over your chicken recipe. :=)
