Sweet Potato Pie: Fall Favorite
Sweet Potato Pie is another of my fall favorites. Over the years I have heard different theories of why we crave seasonal foods.

Chicken and Dumplings Recipe
One of my favorite meals is Chicken and Dumplings (mostly dumplings). There was a time when I enjoyed eating chicken, pork chops, cube steak, and other meats. I cannot bear to eat meat these days. Something about the texture maybe? I do not know. I would probably eat chicken and dumplings every day if I could. My appetite has changed so much in the last couple of years. Some days I may eat and other days I do not want anything to eat, but chicken and dumplings seem to do the trick every time. Chicken and dumplings is a very Read More
