HERE'S MINE!  ENJOY!

   

Hungarian / American Chicken Soup.

1 or 2 Chickens cut in 8 pieces ea.
I bunch of carrots or 2 cans of baby carrots
I bunch Celery or 2 cans of mixed Vegetables.
2 onions 1/4ered

Seasonings:

Garlic
salt
pepper
paprika
Poultry seasoning

Season Chicken with all 5 seasonings and place in large 4 or 5 quart pot add vegetables. If using fresh carrots and celery do not cut in pieces. Clean and cut to as close to full length as possible. Lay on top of chicken and season lightly with the 5 seasonings. Lay onions on top of other veggies. If using canned veggies add the liquid from can to pot.

Optional; Add about 4 ozs. of Lambrusco wine.

Fill pot with water to about 1 inch from the brim.

Cover and bring to a boil.

Reduce heat to a simmer after 5 minutes of boiling.

Simmer till veggies are super soft and chicken falls off the bone.

And freeze some for during the week.

As Dolly would say, "NUMMERS"!  lol

Presentation:

The traditional Hungarian presentation is to place a piece of chicken whole in the center of the soup bowl and then lay a whole carrot and a whole celery next to the chicken then some onions over the whole works and pour the broth over the parts.

The Americanization of the soup is still to place a piece of chicken whole in the bowl and pour broth and veggies over it and serve.

   BON APETITE!

This next one is one of my favorites.  It's called, "He ain't heavy, he's my brother".  This past weekend a very good friend of mine called me to tell me his 41 yr. old. son had committed suicide.  My heart is very heavy right now & I ask you all for prayers for the family.  Thank you very much.  I hope you enjoy this tune.  It was done a while back, and yes that's me singing, and the cutie is my granddaughter.

My question is: Who is your favorite male singer and what is it that you like about him?

I'm a big fan of Frank Sinatra.  Guess I like his style, and the way he handled himself.
