12 Comics Who Aren't Funny:

I don’t think I disagree with a single name on this list. It probably could be whittled down to 9, but still. I’m glad someone said this. Also, Mind of Mencia was canceled last year? I had no idea that I should have been happier. There’s hope for canceling Jeff Dunham, then.

The Great War in Colour

The Great War in Colour:

lots of color photographs of WWI in color from over 90 years ago. We’ve all seen pictures of this war in B&W, but to see them pop in true color, it’s amazing. Remember, Veterans’ Day in America started as Armistice Day to commemorate the end of WWI.

crock pot chicken soup with dumplings

Wed, 11 Nov 2009 14:55:52 -0500

So I’ve been sick for a bit lately with the ol’ swine flu. The Wife suggested I make some chicken dumpling soup in the crockpot so it could cook while I rested and then it would be hot and ready for dinner. It was so easy and is hands-down the best soup I’ve ever made, and in the top 5 for best soups ever. Would you like to know how to make it? Sure!

2 lbs boneless skinless chicken thighs
1 1/2 quarts low-sodium chicken broth (I used Trader Joe’s)
one medium-sized yellow onion, diced
1 lb bag of frozen peas n carrots
2 cans of cream of mushroom soup
salt
pepper
herbs de provence
2 packages of pillsbury biscuits (shhhh)

chop chicken into 1” pieces, put into the bottom of a large (5qt) crockpot.
add salt, pepper, herbs de provence
dice onion, add to crockpot
add bag of frozen peas & carrots
add chicken stock
add cream of mushroom soup
put on lid, cook on high for 5-6 hrs
after 5-6 hrs, open biscuits and quarter the raw dough, biscuit by biscuit. The objective is to have small bits of dough.
drop them into the soup, stirring it up after a layer of dough has been added
cover, and continue to cook for another 1-1.5 hrs
ENJOY

that’s it! This made a ton and was delicious and incredibly creamy. Enjoy!
