Easy Crockpot Chicken Chili

I am so so happy to be typing right now! After a crazy summer and then the business of getting everyone settled back into the fall routine it is nice to be able to sit down and endulge my hobby. I have had so many ideas over the last few months that I have been dying to get onto paper…or well onto the screen, I guess pen to paper is no longer a saying that makes much sense. Insanity is definitly an apt name for what is going on here, between sports, school, church and all the other lifely obligations, it has been nuts! I have two in full time school now, and one at preschool and I was assuming I would have all the time in the world to create and blog this year…..I was wrong!

So I call up my mom and tell her to bring over some of those tomatoes stat!  HAHA, did you think I had a tomato garden??  My yard is filled with holes – last I checked the children are burying dragons eggs (one would think that burying something would involve the holes getting filled in). Any way I call my mom for her wonderful fresh tomatoes and she hooked me up.  I also use peaches for a little bit of sweetness to battle the heat of the peppers.   I love roasting everything before I start for the flavor it brings out of the fruits and veggies.
