This recipe is from a church cookbook that my friend Barb got for me and it is very easy and very good!
Bacon Potato Chowder
8 slices bacon, cut up
1 c onion chopped
1 c celery chopped
2 medium potatoes, peeled and diced
1 c chicken broth
1/4 c fresh parsley
1 can cream of mushroom soup
1/2 c sour cream
1 1/2 c milk
salt and pepper to taste
In a saucepan, cook bacon, onion and celery until bacon is lightly browned and veggies are tender. Pour off drippings and add potatoes, broth, salt and pepper. Cover and simmer 12-15 mins until potatoes are tender. Stir in soup, sour cream, milk and parsley. Heat through.
Serves 6
I had some heavy whipping cream to use up so I used that instead of the milk and it just made it even thicker and creamier, so use whatever you have on hand.

Well I am going to yet another scrapbooking weekend and this time I only needed to bring a treat to share. I made these to take with and boy oh boy are they addicting! Worth all the time needed to make them, ha ha ha, really it took more time to break the pretzels than anything.

4 boneless chicken breasts
1/2 cup ketchup
3 tablespoons brown sugar
2 tablespoons vinegar
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
2 teaspoons dry mustard

less if you prefer to reduce the calories.
In large bowl, beat together milk and eggs. Pour over cheese. (May be
