Family



Here we are!  This is the family behind the scenes of Elizabeth Obsesses.  I love seeing my favorite humans all in one place...well almost all of them!   Our oldest daughter, is raising a family of her own, and isn't shown in this one.  If she were, it would be simply perfect.  That said, this is still one of my favorite photos on Earth.  These people are my biggest supporters and bring me more happiness than I ever imagined possible.

Delaware Chicken and Slippery Dumplings

Chicken and Slippery Dumplings Dumplings.   The word can be traced back to the 1600's in print, but was surely around long before that!  While there are many different techniques for making dumplings, their purpose was obvious.   They were invented solely to fill hungry bellies cheaply.    The fact that they're still around is just a testimony to how tasty they are.  In fact, every country in the world has some kind of dumpling as part of it's cuisine.  From Afrikan Fufu to Scandinavian Klubb, these meals all consist of rolling or dropping some type of starchy dough into some boiling liquid.  Click below to read more.
