I know it's been forever since I posted. No Christmas pics for 2012...we got busy and well life happens. So to new things. Since Mother Nature has blessed us with a wonderful winter week. I was looking for yummy cold weather food to make. Today I attempted to make Grandmas Thompson's FAMOUS Chicken and dumplings. This recipe was never officially written down, it was in Grandmas head. You could ask her a million times how to make it and she would tell you, " a pinch of this, a cup of that".So all we really have to go by is what we "saw" her make. So after a phone call and text to Darrell's mom and aunt I felt up to the task at hand. I boiled the chicken, made the dumpling dough, put it all together and waited. I have to say, it turned out pretty good. Darrell hand seconds so that's a good sign! However I have to say no one will ever be able to make chicken and dumplings like Grandma Thompson.
