Kids bedroom Interior Decorating Ideas
If you place it in your family room then it has to compete with the television, computers, and video games. While your family may appreciate the visual aspect, the relaxing sound of trickling water will be overpowered by the hustle and bustle of a busy family.
By placing the water feature in your bedroom, you maximize its potential. You can be relaxed by the hypnotic flow of the water and lulled off to sleep by the sound of trickling water. It makes for the perfect sanctuary.
Your bedroom is your sanctuary so the bedroom decorating ideas you come up with that reflect your personality and create a relaxing atmosphere is what makes your room special.

Chicken "Divine"
I would imagine many of you have heard of the classic dish, Chicken Divan. Perhaps your Mom made it or your Grandmother - it's been around since the 1950's, I'd say. If you're not familiar, it's made with cream of mushroom soup, broccoli, chicken, cheddar cheese, ect. It is quite a tasty dish; however, I have an updated version of this classic that is just diviiiiiiine - it's called Chicken "Divine" and its from the Bride and Groom First and Forever Cookbook.
There are several reasons why I love this casserole;
1 - It can be made a day ahead of time - definite plus for the busy Cottage Mama.
2 - You can freeze it and just pop it in the oven during the week on a busy day when you have no time to cook (adjust cooking time accordingly).
3 - It is a wonderful dish to take to someone who is ill or has just had a new baby.
4 - It's comfort food at it's best and will warm you from the inside out!
My Mom's friend, Judi gave Brett and I this cookbook for our wedding and it has been a "go to" book for me ever since. I haven't tried a single recipe that didn't turn out excellent. The first year we were married I hosted my in-laws for Thanksgiving (nerve-racking, right?) and I used many recipes from this book and they all turned out to be a success. If you have an upcoming wedding or shower to attend, I highly recommend this book as a gift - your friends will definitely thank you for it!
