I'm debating--this, or the Morrocan Stewed Chicken for dinner.  Probably this.

Yum! I'm saving this one! Although, won't be tonight for dinner. Tonight I'm having beer. :D It's the local Octoberfest in town. This will be a good meal for Sunday. I think the girls will really like this one too!

Swampy might have to make this one for his mom.

But he won't have any -- poor chicken.

Jenshim, Octoberfest in September??  That's great, early bird catches the worm.  .  

Peek, this recipe does sound good.

This was good.  Mr Peek is not feeling well, and wanted comfort food.  Fit the bill nicely, along with my Jazzy Orange Mashed potatoes, and mixed veggies.
