Cooking with Emmy--

For Christmas my sister got me the "Pioneer Woman Cooks" By Ree Drummond. I have never met her, but I think we would be friends if we lived in the same rural area. She too came from city life and married into rural country life. She lives on a ranch and I on a farm...She wrote this cookbook to help others everywhere learn to cook some "cowboy" worthy meals. Dan isn't so much a "cowboy" as he is a "farm boy" but I think it is a pretty safe assumption that while they do very different work, their appetites are much the same!
So in honor of my New Year's goal to be a better housewife I thought I would try some of her recipe's. What I should do is set a goal to make Dan each of the recipe's in her book(hmmm, we may have to revisit that thought). But for now I thought I would show you my first recipe. Chicken Pot Pie. I like to just call it SUPER DE-LISH. Thank you Pioneer Woman!! :)
Riley helped and Dan gave the thumbs up and said I should be very proud of myself, for it was really good!

 

I think he's right, because between only 2 adults and a pint size 2yr old, this is all that's left!

 

Maybe chicken fried steak tomorrow??? We'll see...
