I have both of those recipes. Okay, I am 64, so I do have 17 cookbooks, a personal favorite notebook for recipes, and many recipe cards from others. I have never tried a chicken pot pie, but have wanted to do one, but I make so many "hotdishes" or casseroles as that is how I grew up in a family of 7. I am also going to make my own vanilla, since have seen how simple it is, just have not found any bottles like you have. I am a widow now (13.5 years) and rarely bake, but I have stocked up on flour and sugars, so plan to get back into it now that Minnesota is cold and snowy.…
