- WHO'S THAT GIRL: A higher education obsessed foodie who is documenting her life in the kitchen. I love to cook delicious, gourmet-style foods for those I love and always welcome a challenge in the kitchen. With that challenge comes an impromptu nature. I tend to avoid following recipes to the exact, so you are not likely to find very many posted here. Being that I am a Libra and am learning to be free in the kitchen, the story always goes, "A pinch of this and a smattering of that!" Thank you for visiting -- and happy reading!

Blessed Savory Pie
Ah, the joys of cooking a chicken pot pie.
I only seem to cook these when I am feeling lonesome and wanting for home.
Indeed, isn't the chicken pot pie one of the ultimate types of comfort food?
In a sense, it is a plush sofa, personified.
This time, I used chicken leftover for a rosemary-rubbed chicken roast I made. To it, I added an ample sampling of frozen peas and carrots. I also used a chicken soup base, but ended up adding a tad bit too much water. Though the texture of the filling was thin, not hearty as a pot pie should be, the flavor was right on.
