*** A WORD FROM THE KITCHEN ***

We're back! I hope everyone had a nice Thanksgiving.
Even though we had to commute between households (and
states) this year, we had an incredible time visiting
with both sides of our family...of course never enough
time for us though. I have to admit with the shuffling
I was not the hostess this year but I did make up for
it in dishes washed ;o) I think I can not eat for about
a week now but if you need a great turkey leftover
recipe try this TURKEY TETRAZZINI and feel free to
substitute cooked chicken in this recipe anytime too.

Enjoy & have a great weekend!
