Cookies in the house!

Barrie and I had a wonderful lunch and visit. She is my age and it is fun to swap old people experiences. The food was delicious and they had a nice selection of Christmas cookies so I snagged me a few.

Barrie and Dennis live in on the beach in West Seattle in a 2 condo building - they are the lower level. It's a marvelous space 2 bedrooms, 2 baths, living room, dining room and kitchen look right over the sound to the snow capped mountain range.

This is what it looked like this morning when I got there.

A photog yesterday stood in the same spot but the opposite view and got this shot yesterday. Barrie said she was home alone and it was not the worst but up there in the top ten and pretty nail biting.



I popped into Safeway on my way home. I love stores that offer up precooked shredded chicken and prechopped onions. I came home and added the above to one half a large potato, diced and a bunch of mushrooms with some flour, salt, pepper and chicken stock (from the box).

Then I unrolled pre made pie crust and lined my ramekins and filled 'em up. Bingo bango... Chicken pot pie the way I like it. I made 4. I tried to make less filling and failed. Oh well. 3 are in the freezer and this one is tonight's dinner.

Is that how you/one make/s chicken pot pie? That’s my faaaaaavorite! That precious gravy has always been a mystery to me. I think I’m finally going to make it. I like recipes like you like them: EASY.

:) - wait until after dinner tonight for verification... probably could use spices - I did add salt and pepper but maybe needs more. Will report.

I'm all about the easy.
