	Mexican Chicken Soup by Drick Perry Now, this is a pot of pleasure.The cooler days and nights of late have been good times to enjoy bowls of hot soups, like the one today, a well flavored, chicken rich and savory soup that is as they say, 'good to the last drop.'The recipe is similar to one I remember making many years ago.

	Holiday Breakfast Pudding by Drick Perry Start the New Year Off Right...... with a scrumptious, ooey gooey and yet hardy breakfast casserole full of everything needed to jump start the day.

	Ambrosia Cookies, a Southern Tradition by Drick Perry Don't call these Fruitcake Cookies.Much like fruitcakes are to some, these treats are traditional quintessential cookies baked in most southern kitchens.The recipe varies from household to the next, from grandmother to mom and from country living to that of city, but one thing each version has going is the great, old-fashion taste…	1 vote 305 views
