Chef 's Corner

Corn Chowder
When it came time to select this month's recipe I chose one that's perfect for a cold, windy
winters day, which will be upon us shortly. We've been making this tasty, easy to prepare,
corn chowder for decades. I recommend you include fresh biscuits loaded with butter and
berry preserves or perhaps a nice grilled cheese sandwich. The options are endless. Enjoy.
