And I'm adding chicken to it because it says you can. And cheese. Nothing could be bad about broccoli cheddar soup with chicken and cheese. I'll let you guys know how it is. And Kav, I googled it, but don't have an answer for you. It's interesting that you can buy it cheaper from Food Service Direct... but then they charge $7-10 shipping, which takes the six-pack right back to the mid-thirties. <br /><br />We had "Bake-a-Memory" day today... And I sent all the cookies home with the grandkids except a few for Dave's dad.<br /><br />Right now I'm wishing I'd saved one or two.Ruth Logan Hernehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11550734775151341968noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7945786327884906788.post-56044413961827995092011-12-03T19:48:36.804-05:002011-12-03T19:48:36.804-05:00Seriously?

I guess you can really tell how I feel about cooking (coking).<br /><br />My daughter eats a ton of avocados so what I've learned is if the feel only slightly soft to the touch, that's best. Once they feel really soft, they're too far gone. You can also tell somewhat by the color. When they're bright green, they're not yet ripe. The Hass or Calvados ones turn blackish green as they ripen.Mary Curryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04173540875518117671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7945786327884906788.post-27371588938314263272011-12-03T17:35:57.962-05:002011-12-03T17:35:57.962-05:00Donna, I didn't know about the chicken either....Donna, I didn't know about the chicken either.
