Laura makes great potato soup. She wrote an article about it. https://harvestlanecottage.blogspot.com/2017/02/filling-tummies-in-hard-times-simple.html?m=1

I brought home the turkey carcass from our daughters last night. It’s pretty big and I put it on to cook this morning for broth. Anyone else making broth today? And why is broth always called Bone Broth now? I thought all meat broths started with bones.

About a year ago we started having problems with our old stovetop. We had several repairman out and basically they said it wasn’t worth fixing. We were down to 2 burners and one night we were in the living room and the stovetop started clicking. I turn the knob and it shot flames. I unplugged it and turned the gas off immediately. We have been limping along for a while using a gas demo burner, a hot plate, electric skillet, air fryer, and electric griddle. We were fine but Laura said we were camping in our kitchen. Today we got our new cooktop, just in time for Thanksgiving. We are so blessed and excited. It will make it so much easier to do cooking videos now 👏. Our kids are old enough now they have their own homes and their own kitchens and so they’re all bringing part of the food so basically we’re hosting and making a couple pies and the kids are doing everything else. So nice!! Menu- 🦃, mashed potatoes and gravy, green bean casserole, stuffing, sweet potato casserole, corn casserole, and croissants. Oh yes can’t forget the relish tray with carrots, celery, black olives and sweet baby pickles. What’s on your menu? God bless you and may you enjoy your holiday.

My mom gave me a sourdough starter and I've been making sourdough loaves every Tuesday and Friday we'll yesterday I attempted pepperoni rolls and sort of failed as I didn't use enough pepperoni. I have also started making my own pasta I'll share picks later as I'm making more pasta today.

The other night I made some chili! Copy kat Wendy's chili. It is so good and taste just like Wendy's. I love mine with crackers. Our boys brought sour cream, fritos, and shredded cheddar. Oh, I also cut up fresh onion. MMMM good! I will post the recipe next.
