Chicken and Dumplings... You know your want some...

A certain Facebook friend seen i was making chicken and dumplings for dinner tonigt and was sad she wasn't here to have any... so i told her i would pay the recipe up for her... so here it is...

What you will need:

1 crock pot
1lb. Frozen mixed veggies (caned works too)
2 large chicken breasts (thawed or frozen)
One can of your fav biscuits 
3 cloves Garlic
Salt and pepper to taste
2 cups of milk
2 cups of water
1 can of cream of  chicken soup or mushroom i used one of each...

Now spray the inside of your pot with non stick spray... and pour in the veggies. Then if you are using thawed chicken dice it into chucks and dump that in there. If nit just place the frozen chicken right on top. Add the cans of soup..Now pour in the milk  and a bit if water.

Now set it on high and forget it for 4 hours if the chicken is thawed 7 if frozen

When you stir it you will be able to see if the chicken is done or not.

Now pop open the biscuits (i love doing that) and  i quarter them and drop them in. Its up to u how many u want. I use the whole can...  but quarter them and just drop them in...

Let it set for around one more hour...

Stir it up and laddle it out...

I like to serve mine in over sized coffee cups 

How you like it!

P.s this makes alot so invite friends over...

lookie lookie me make socks

so after a good two years i finally knit myself a pair of socks… i forgot how much i love knitting them and now that I have my own bedroom and a safe place for my yarn I can start stashing again…




I havnt had a yarn stash in over 3 years I have been knitting from ball to ball and its killing me! at one time i reknit the same ball of yellow acylic no less than 4 times. Now I just need to find some yarn to stash I guess not that many people knit in florida so they hide there knitting stores…sigh



But these are my new socks… simple yet comfy. Named after the city I now call home. (moved from Norcal 3 weeks ago) Tampa Bay
