Greenwood SC Realtor Cooks Up A Perfect Recipe For A Cold Snowy Winter Weekend
I promised you quick and easy but this one takes a bit longer but oh so GOOD! I'm sitting in my living room in Greenwood SC all cozy and warm and we're getting our first snow in several years!!! and I just thought of this recipe, it will perfect for tommorrow. I won't be going out because I don't trust my snow driving skills and neither should an buyer be brav enough to get into the car with me. So here's the plan, New England Clam Chowder and a really good movie what could be better! Here you go you'll be glad you spent the time when you taste it. Oh since it's Valentine weekend I thought I would share one of my daughter's wedding pictures with you. It's her recipe so it fits perectly with the theme.
