Chicken Vegetable Chowder:yummy!!

Friday, March 5th, 2010
a board full ‘o goodness
Inspired by the Dairy Farmers of Canada 2010 Milk Calendar Maritime Seafood Chowder except my kids won’t eat fish! The recipe shows you how to substitute chicken and thyme for the dill. I added extra veggies and doubled the recipe! Super for sunday night dinner with homemade tea biscuits( I’ll post that next). Don’t forget the thermos lunch the following day.
Creamy Chowder….

Snickerdoodle cake...delicious with caramelized apples

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                             “Oh Snickerdoodle” the flustered Betty curses as she accidentally adds the baking soda to the milk instead of the dry ingredients!

piece a little flopped“What does that mean mom?” asks Jane

“ummmer uhhhh-Snickerdoodle? oh It means delicious in ancient English”

Who knows what snickerdoodle means or where the name came from, but let your imagination run wild with how it came about. After reading the recipe it seems like a bit of a baking experiment that may have turned out to be the best white cake ever. My mom made this for us as kids and now I really enjoy making it for my family. Everytime I tell them a different story about what snickerdoodle means:)
