Hello fellow bloggers and followers!  It's been a very long time since I posted anything.  A lot of things have changed in my life.  I have become recently divorced this year and have moved in with a wonderful man and my youngest son.  I still love to cook and have just now felt like it is time to continue with my blogging.  It makes me feel joy to cook for the men in my life and to share these meals with you.

Today's meal was a hearty Mexican Chicken Corn Chowder with Grandma's Honey muffins.  I found these recipes on Tasteofhome.com.  They were both quick and easy recipes with powerful flavors.  I would add either another can of diced green chilies or maybe some fresh jalapeno peppers to the chowder to kick up the heat a bit and maybe a tsp of vanilla to the honey muffins to make them sweeter.  Other than that, I wouldn't change a thing.  My son, Dylan, loved both of these recipes.  As a matter of fact, he just walked in from being out most of the evening and is snacking on a honey muffin.  My boyfriend came home from a long day of disc golfing and enjoyed the leftover chowder and muffins.  He did save a little for lunch tomorrow.  I am hoping the flavors of the chowder only get better overnight.  I suggest if you want a hearty, warm, tasty meal on a cold winter evening then you should try this!  If you do, please let me know what you think!  Thanks for dishing with Di!
