I find that cornstarch adds no flavor to foods, and flour adds a little taste. Just an idea, since you guys cook like I do, by the seat of your pants, so to speak!Marjiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14950085029835332900noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-511932079074193335.post-33301911032635617652011-10-24T16:54:42.281-04:002011-10-24T16:54:42.281-04:00I can't decide which is my favorite!

It was a great way to start my day, and I know Peggy will enjoy that along with the chicken and dumplings. (Is there really a g on the end of that word?)

You are both such great people and Bev's soup and chicken and dumplings would make anyone feel better.
