While making chicken soup, I thought of this great title. I wasn’t planning on posting about chicken soup, but when a good title comes along, I must write about it. What can I say? This soup is made after feasting on a whole rotisserie chicken we bought from Sam’s Club for five dollars. Being a […]
Do you ever get stuck on an ancestry problem where you have no one to ask about it or you feel uncomfortable always emailing your friend for help?

Hi again. I didn’t forget about posting my favorite bread and butter pickles. I have been making this recipe for 22 years. According to my recipe, I started making them July 31, 2002. What can I say?
