I'm following your meal plan,and have been very successful with my family.every week I sit down and copy your meals for my week. you make my life so easy,and for that reason thank you again and many blessings from my family to yours.

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Aw Evelyn thank you, glad you are enjoying meal planning. For me it is the biggest thing I can do to make the house run smoothly. Hugs Shelby

[@marthaesparza4753]

Love your channel! Hope you are feeling better and I understand completely what you mean about chronic pain and having not so great days. It's so great that your husband cooks and the boys help out!

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Thank you Martha, chronic pain is no fun, it sounds like you know what I'm talking about. It is so wonderful when the boys chip in with a happy heart. :D Shelby

[@sandyatkins6974]

Love your meal planning. You are a awesome cook. I've tried lots of your recipes and all have turned out great. Glad to hear you are on the mend

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Awe thank you Sandy :D

[@SillyMe2718]

Praying for full recovery..... So glad your wonderful husband is able to help when your not well! Ohhh forgot about puffed taco's, think I'll do shrimp ones!! Hi there Ken!!

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Thank you. I bet the shrimp tacos would be delicious. Shelby

[@MyFullFiguredLife]

Everything looks amazing 😘

[@DebraGabriella]

Oh Shelby I hope you’re feeling better, positive thoughts and prayers for you. Breakfast is definitely a perfect go to dinner in a pinch! Now i have a taste for San Antonio taco’s, TFS as always! Rest up.

[@TheQueensCabinet]

:D Thanks Debra!

[@marillacuthbert2115]

Sorry to hear your body was kicking up this last week. You must spend lots of hours on your feet with this delicious meal prep you do, not to mention the other unknown responsibilities you must quietly do. You seem like a really hard worker. I always think about the ladies of old who “took to their bed”. I really value that. How healing it is to rest. We need it, and not just physically. I’m glad you were able to rest and are feeling better. I’m sorry you had pain. I really see how your meal planning made it easy for your family to pitch in and I see how smart that is. I’m going to work on that. Thank you. And that fried chicken is calling to me.

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Thank you for the kind and encouraging words Marilla

[@Iheart2cook]

Oh my gosh, Shelby. I can't choose which meal to focus on first. They all look delicious! You are so right about letting the fried chicken set after you coat it with flour. Absolute game changer. I've never brined my fried chicken but you can bet I will now. I will be checking out your bistro chicken as well. It's no fun feeling poorly and then still having to do all the work we moms do. Nobody told me about that before kids?? Take care of yourself. TFS!!

[@TheQueensCabinet]

I know you love to cook, once you brine your chicken and turkey......you are gonna think why didn't I ever do this before. No more dried poultry, the meat stays so moist. I like to brine pork chops too. I make a "bistro" compound butter for the roasted chicken and keep it in the freezer, so it makes it super easy to make it when you want. I actually think we should brand "before kids" LOL

[@pba1219a]

Awww, Shelby. I'm so sorry that you haven't been feeling well. I'm gonna say an extra prayer for you!! Now, your meals just looked absolutely delicious, but they always do! Feel better!! Hugs to you!!

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Thank you so much Dana, you are always so kind. Shelby

[@kristenc8446]

I look forward to this video every week! You really inspire me to cook better for my husband! Go Ken for taking over this week! 🙌🏼

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Thank you Kristen, I love to hear your husband is loving your cooking! You go girl!!! :D Shelby

[@ptebo7219]

So sorry to hear you had a bad few days, pray things are better for you. I know Ken will take great care of you. THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH, the print and coin were Beautiful. Ken and you are such wonderful people, Blessings to both Patty

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Patty it was our pleasure. If you guys ever get to San Diego, you got to go see the Midway, there is a bunch of guys that was stationed on it that volunteer. The history is just amazing, and they have dozens of planes on the deck too. Please thank your husband for his service. Hugs Shelby

[@ptebo7219]

I will do that for sure. Hugs Patty

[@Amy-jc5mo]

Sorry you've had a rough couple of days. I hope you are on the mend. Your meal planning certainly kept your dinners running smoothly last week.. Your meals looked absolutely delicious. You are such an inspiration. I've been slowly trying to incorporate your recipes into my family's meal plans. Thank you for sharing your skills.

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Awe Amy thank you! :D Shelby

[@NukkinMisfit]

Hope you are feeling better Shelby! Sending prayers! Glad Ken & the boys pulled together for you while you were down! As always, everything looked delicious!

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Awe thank you Susan. :D Shelby

[@WillowsGarden]

Hope you feel better and it's nice to be pampered when your not feeling well.....good job Ken!

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Thank you so much!

[@MyFullFiguredLife]

Yum. That chicken looks amazing.

[@nancyosgood777]

Hope you are doing better Shelby! It is so great that Ken can jump right in there and help out. As usual your food looks so good. I am still in Myrtle Beach. The weather has been spectacular and we are so enjoying as much fresh seafood as possible!!

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Nancy I am so happy to hear you are having a great time. I mentioned to Ken about Myrtle Beach, we would like to buy a small condo on the east coastline for family vacations. Myrtle Beach sounds promising, we hope to go sometime this year. Hugs SHelby

[@bethbilous4720]

Shelby, please say where again you get your meal planning sheets. I do hope you feel much better, and life does not get you too down. Oh and please tell me for the second time where you got your spice bottles. I love em.

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Hi Beth the meal plan sheets can be purchased at carrieelle.com for 5 bucks. I have gotten my monies worth over the years for sure. Shelby 6 oz French Style Spice Jars www.nakpunar.com/glass-jars/s...

[@Chicken3647]

I made the mississippi roast on Sunday and my dad is already requesting it again for next week! He said we have to make 3 so we have tons of leftovers! Mind you its just me, mom, and dad. We alternate cooking between our 2 houses. Im 24 and love to cook! Also Ken did such a good job! I also have a medical condition that puts me down for the count sometimes! Glad you are feeling a bit better! (:

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Katlyn I love to hear you enjoy cooking and are close to your family, that is beautiful! That Mississippi Roast sounds like a crazy recipe, but it is so good. :D

[@Canadianwdwfan71]

I look forward to seeing your meal plans every week. Thank you so much for all of your cooking tips! You have taught me a lot. I will definitely try resting the chicken before frying. Hope you feel better this week and you are not in pain. 💛😊

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Thank you so much Lana, chronic pain can be so challenging. Resting the chicken really makes a difference, a good friend of mine taught me that. Hugs Shelby

[@marina913]

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Hi Erin, we have 4 college age boys, our "baby" is 6'5" LOL Shelby

[@BrandonLandon21]

I'm from San Antonio and those tacos that you made are legit!!! They remind me of Ray's puffy tacos which is actually down the street from me but hard to get a parking space to actually order! I'm going to try these!!

[@mrs.fergusons3rdgradeclass213]

Love watching your videos! I hope you feel better!

[@TheQueensCabinet]

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Thank you Vicky, the puffy tacos are soooooo yummy! Shelby

[@Mtripp27]

It's so nice to have a man who is able to pick up where you left off when you are not feeling well. My husband is great at that. I am so glad your husband is also good at that. It's such a blessing. I hope you feel better soon!

[@TheQueensCabinet]

And to do so with a happy heart, it is indeed a Blessing. :D

[@patierazo1215]

[@tock3287]

I hope you feel better. I can empathise with you with my multiple sclerosis. You have a great family there. Lovely food. I did wonder why you had not been on as much. Take care. X

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Bless your heart Helen, chronic pain can be debilitating. I try and do a little at a time, but sometimes the pain can be so bad that all I can do is stay in bed. Hope you have a fantastic week. Shelby

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Kelly I bought the download from CarrieElle.com for 5 bucks, love it! Shelby

[@scarlettk2019]

Have you ever thought about doing your own cookbook?

[@TheQueensCabinet]

I would love to do a cookbook for our boys as a gift. Shelby

[@tinas4946]

Your food is so yummy... hope you are feeling better.

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Thank you Tina!

[@laurah548]

Sorry to hear about your chronic pain! Was wondering if something had happened when you didn't upload for WW Fridays. Glad to hear that everyone stepped up when you weren't able to cook. If you don't mind me asking, did something cause the chronic pain, like an accident or something, or did it just come along? No issue if its personal :)

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Laura I had a traumatic injury about 15 years ago, and in that one moment my life was forever changed. I usually don't complain too much, so Ken knows it is really bad when I do. I was so bummed I couldn't go to WW this past week, I am getting close to the big 25 pound mark. :D Shelby

[@jenniferbarnes9344]

Mrs. Shelby, on what days do you do your meal planning and grocery shopping?

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Jennifer I plan my meals Monday-Sunday and try to have the menu completed by Friday, I usually shop on Saturdays, and meal prep on Sundays.

[@erikacruz3639]

Just Subscribed... Your tips will help me Alot! Thank you.

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Thanks Erika and welcome to my channel. We have a great group here. Shelby

Hope you feel better soon.

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Thank you Anita :D Shelby

[@anitatucker8812]

TheQueensCabinet You're welcome Shelby.

[@TBegay]

The comments here are very active with cooks. So I wanted to run this thing I've heard recently and wanted your guy's thoughts. Non stick aerosol cooking spray and extra virgin olive oil ruining a non-stick pan because it'll “carbonize" on the surface. Basically causing you to scrub the pan and damage the surface.

[@TheQueensCabinet]

I hadn't heard that, thank you for mentioning. Shelby

[@gaugesharp6406]

I can only imagine the pain and recovery at the time of your ordeal and the up days and down days afterwards through the years. But every day is a good day if engaging in home, kitchen, babies, husband, pets, garden, sun and moon. And always the Good LORD. He has surely been with you. Many many more blessings to you. -Connie

[@TheQueensCabinet]

EVen on my worst day, I continue to give praise and be thankful. #walkbyfaith!!!

[@TBegay]

I'm sorry to hear you had a few bad days this past week :(

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Thank you :D Shelby

[@carmadariacompaniona4181]

Take good care of yourself 🙏

[@insectchart1605]

That chicken looks good

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Thank you

[@RunsWithKnives]

I'm full all ready, now I don't have to eat dinner, lol. You know I can relate to physical limitations, probably why we've become such good friends over the years on here. Good job Ken and I'm glad your feeling better Shelby.

[@TheQueensCabinet]

I usually try and not complain about the day to day chronic pain, but when I say I am in pain to Ken he knows it is bad. He did good! :D Shelby

[@RunsWithKnives]

I can relate, my girls can as well :)

[@shannonhodge4754]

First comment ☺️☺️ I so love your videos! I’ve almost watched them all 😂

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Awe thank you Shannon!

[@angiebfromthed7325]

No offense but that chicken did not look GBD....lol

[@TheQueensCabinet]

None taken because it is better than Roscoe's

[@angiebfromthed7325]

TheQueensCabinet if I went to Roscoe's and they tried to sale me some over cooked over battered dark chicken like yours I wouldn't pay for it no matter how it taste..you eat with your eyes first.
