Secret Recipe Chicken Fricassee
This was my Grandma's secret family recipe from her French ancestors. I have never seen a recipe like this on any site. It's a rich creamy sauce over chicken...great with mashed potatoes. A great dish for Easter or Christmas.
Churro Chex Mix
My churro Chex mix was a hit at my work. Best part is how easily customizable it is! The Scooby-Doo snacks and Bugles were a fabulous addition and lent a Halloween look to this mix! Helpful hint: you can get a lot of add-ins from a dollar store!

These walnut pumpkin cookies are frosted with maple frosting. There has never been a person who has not loved these cookies, even those who do not like pumpkin cookies. A family recipe for 35 years, it has won 1st prize at a cookie exchange and a pumpkin contest at work. I usually triple the recipe!
