Isn't it just wonderful when someone prepares a delicious meal for you? To walk into your own kitchen and have fabulous aromas lingering in the air and making your tummy growl?
These two lovely young people (my youngest son, Mr. S. and his sweet girlfriend, Miss K.) are just so thoughtful and quite an impressive pair in the kitchen! They found a recipe for Paula Deen's chicken pot pie on the internet, made the list, went shopping and came home to get busy in the kitchen. Miss K. came all the way from New Hampshire and she said that before she left for home, they wanted to do something nice for my husband and I.
They even set the table and my son was proud to find the cherry napkins that I had stashed away.
Thank you, Miss K. and Mr. S., for making such a fabulous feast for us!!!You really outdid yourselves and the pot pie was PERFECT! Right down
to the creamy sauce! Yum!!!
Y'all should give this recipe a try. You may have to unbutton the top of your trousers afterwards, but it is well worth it!!

Great kids! Gotta love it when someone takes over in the kitchen...did they clean up afterward, too?
Oh how sweet of your son and his girlfriend. My mouth is watering just looking at your pictures so I can only imagine how good it must taste for real. I think I will have to try that recipe and maybe wear some elastic waist pants that day :-)
how wonderfully sweet of them...i wish that i could make a meal for you as well!
one day my own girlies can whip something up for me. won't that be wonderful?!
love,
chasity
ps. mrs magpie made up the most delightful story about a bird that she bought from my girls...hope you can see it...it is very entertaining {the link is on my post}
have a good week.
How utterly fabulous! Mr. S and Miss K, I am so proud of you!!!! That recipe looks like a real keeper. I'm certainly going to save it for a future luncheon for my quilter friends.
Miss Becky: Not only did you get to come home to a house full of wonderful aromas, but you came home to a house full of love!!!
what a nice thing for them to do, showing their love for you in such a yummy way! you'll remember them in every bite :)
what a sweet pair they are. She seems like pretty good makings for a great daughter-in-law. Proving her talent already huh? It looks delish, the crust looks so light and tasty. I love chicken pot pie, but have never tried Paula Deans. She always makes the best looking food. AND so fattening too, just the kind we like. If you're gonna eat, it might as well taste good right? Have a good week, Shanda
Mmmmmmm~ That looks WONDERFUL! What a kind thing for them to do. I think when a loved one cooks for you they nourish more than just your body! I LOVE the napkins...I need to make some!
Blessings- LillySue
Hi Becky...
Glad you made it home safe!
It was such a pleasure to meet you and the gals.....hope to do it again sometime.
You have a great eye for the bargains and I love your taste.
Thank you again for my Spring sign....so cute and perfect colors too :)
Do you have any Chicken Pot Pie left...LOL~Sheri
Oh, my! That looks so yummy! I would be so proud, too! My Sara is making us homemade chicken and noodles today in the midst of the second blizzard since I've been here..... Weather is such a weird thing.

That is wonderful. How sweet of them and it looks so delicious too. I've love a big bowl of it right now.
Aw that is so nice! It's nice that you appreciated it. My mom never appreciates it when I surprise her with dinner :( So I'll just let you know how happy it probably made them feel that you did show that you liked it and, that it's on your blog! It looks delicious!
All the best,
Allison
Awww, that has to be the sweetest gift ever! What a wonderful Son, you must be so proud! and to hear and see that it's one of my favorite foods ever?? Well, I am officially jealous right now :) and starving too! :)
That is so sweet Becky! Save some for me :)
Hugs, Cynthia
That was so SWEET of them!
Oh, Becky! Yum! What a delicious casserole, made even more so because it was fixed by such loving hands! If only you could pass a piece through the computer screen! But I'm not sure I could stop with one helping. :-)
XO,
Sheila :-)
Gosh, that looks fabulous! Chicken Pot Pie is one of my favorite meals. And what great kids to do such a nice thing for you. Thanks for the recipe!

What a fabulous service to you. They are keepers. And so is that food! I'm hungry now. Again!
The pot pie is making me drool. It looks so good and how special that it was made by such sweeties for you.
Have a wonderful evening.
Jean in Virginia
That sure does look yummy! What a wonderful treat....can't wait until dinner is made for me someday...
Hugs,

Ditto on what Miss Jean said about, Not only did you get to come home to a house full of wonderful aromas, but you came home to a house full of love!!! I never get sick, but today I came home with tight chest, sore throat, weak and a fever. YUK! I napped, just got up and saw this. Oh!!! how wonderful an homemade chicken pot pie would be! And as yummy and as nice as the table looks, I was struck by the same think Miss Jean was. You were served a great tasting meal, with a whole lotta love! Great kids they are!!
That really looks wonderful! I'm going to print out the recipe! Thanks!
That is such a sweet gesture and it looks scrumptious!
What a blessing!
What sweet kids you have. So thoughtful to do that for you. Sounds like you have done a wonderful job of raising them.
Hugs,
Joanne
How sweet of them to do this for y'all....I have tried that recipe and it is delicious!!
Oh my gosh, those two can come to my house and cook for me any time they want! That meal looks fantastic! I'm right here in New England, Miss K's neck of the woods!
I'm longing for spring, too... I love your vase collection. You're right - they're lovely even without flowers.
Wishing you a wonderful week... Donna @ An Enchanted Cottage

ahh. Is all I can say.
You are Blessed.
Hugs,
Sherry
Mmmmm...it looks delicious! Those are two sweet thoughtful kids.
Paula Deen is the best! And what a great son you have to go to all that bother! How wonderful was that? Boy,what I wouldn't give to have someone come into my house and make us all dinner. Awesome!
Cute pictures!
Sending you hugs! Karen
That meal sure looks inviting. Infact, I have to try the recipe myself. Thanks for posting and thanks for the kids for preparing the meal. Can they come to my house and cook?

I hope my kids will do the same! I'm going have to try this recipe, it looks simple and delicious!
Oh that looks so good! I think it's awesome that your son knows his way around the kitchen! Everyone, men and women, should know the basics of cooking and how to feed themselves. He will make some girl very happy someday:>)
That is soo~~~ sweet! It looks yummy, and the table looks so pretty. This is one of my top 3 meals, I will for sure have to try this recipe sometime. I have one of her cookbooks I will see if it is in there, if not there's the good old internet!
Hugs,
Ginger
A homecooked casserole...what a warm and touching gift...

A big dish of comfort right there.
What an adorable couple and how sweet of them to cook dinner. If it is Paula Deen, you know it had to be delicious!!!
Love & blessings from NC!
I could just do with a plateful of that chicken pie right now, it looks absolutely delicious. x
I really thought that I left a comment here.. but do not see it..... soooooooo I will now......
That Pot Pie looks GREAT!!!! That is one of my favorite meals..... We have them at least once a week with a baked potato.......... Not home made mind you.........
What a special treat from a special son! (and girl friend)
lol. I bet that recipe was delicious by the looks of it. How very sweet for the two of them to treat you all to such a nice feast.
Still catching up here Becky. How wonderful is this? They cooked the chicken pot pie for you? I just love a guy who knows his way around the kitchen.
♥, Susan
DROOL!!! That looks so yummy! How sweet of them to make that for you, Becky! Oh my! A QUART of heavy cream?? I bet it was sooooo good!
Becky, do you know if the kids made any adjustments in the recipe for baking it in a pan instead of single servings? I went to the site and printed the recipe (sounds delicious) but it doesn't mention a rectangular casserole or even offer such a size as an alternative...sheesh!
