Grannies homemade chicken and dumplings - Great comfort food - Winter eats

 This recipe has been passed down from my mother-in-law. The entire family looooove this dish. I make it a few times each winter.

Her easy to remember recipe is: 3 2 1 3 cups of flour 2 eggs beaten 1 cup of water 1 whole chicken Boil chicken with celery and carrots if desired. When the wing pulls away from the breast, the chicken is ready. Remove chicken and let cool. Shred chicken. Mix eggs and water, add flour. Roll out on floured counter about 1/4 in thick, cut into bite-size pieces and drop dumplings into a rolling boil, while stirring quickly. Let simmer for 30 mins and serve.

Look what I picked up at the thrift store and a sneek peek at an upcoming dining chair project

 

These white glass globes have a great texture, I wanted to stuff them with fairy lights and turn them into little flickery glowy balls. Also, a sneak peek at a recent thrift shop trip in which I found dining room chairs!! Gorgeous, carved, perfect chairs. They only need a paint job LOL!

Also, a peek at a few of my succulents. Hope you enjoy! #HeirloomTraditionsPaint #Succulents #ABeautifulLoveStory
