Comfort Food For A Cold Winter’s Night ~ Rotisserie Chicken Pot Pie with Homemade Crust

Catching up with January! This month’s lunches out were nothing new, just more of the same - which is very good, in my opinion! The month began with a burger and fries on Galveston Island’s West End, at Nate’s in Jamaica Beach. Up next, was an avocado topped burger with cheese fries at Houston’s Hobbit Cafe. Then, back to the Gulf Coast for Fried Shrimp - on the deck at San Leon’s TopWater Grill a couple of weeks ago, and yesterday on the Island, ‘To Go’ from Shrimp ‘n Stuff’s Jamaica Beach food truck.

Haven’t done much cooking lately that called out for a photo, but last night’s did. Sauteed Chicken Breast, Oven Roasted Goose Fat Red Potatoes and steamed Asparagus

Thank you! Strictly vintage - safe on the stove top, in the oven and in the microwave! I have three in varying sizes. One I’ve had since the 70’s and I got the other two at a friend’s garage sale about ten years ago in exchange for helping her set up the sale. I just love them, too.

Yes, rifle. She said the full moon was the biggest thing giving them trouble because the deer were grazing at night and not active at all during the day. She finally got her chance on day six. Not my idea of fun ~ I’d rather be birding! 😋

Looking forward to this! My baby sister, in Nevada, got her deer last week.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Beef Stew with Egg Noodles

Planning had been up in the air until this past Monday, but now I know it will be the two of us here, so I ran out and got what I needed early this morning. Prep and cooking timeline has been updated from a couple of years ago, printed and clipped to the front of the fridge. Now to line up the movies that tradition says must be seen over the holiday weekend. Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
