Last night Mister and I had chicken and dumplings for Sunday Supper, and it sure was yummy. Not only that, but I finally got a clue and figured out how to halve the recipe so that we…
Over The River and Through The Woods
Mister and I aren’t going to grandmother’s house this year. In fact, we’re parking our asses at the new pad and chilling. And we’re freaking excited about that, too! But if you’re in travel mode, I send…
