Dumplings!

Workin' HARD!
From SCRATCH nonetheless!!! I love my Grandmother.  Over the years she has done so much for me, made me clothes, Mardi Gras costumes, given me GREAT jewelry (real and the good costume stuff), and a ton of wisdom.  When I was creating my list for my 30 in 30 I thought about things I have wanted to learn to do and things I want to try...learning to make dumplings was almost a requirement for this list.  We had SO much fun in the process and got caught up everything going on in each others lives.  I also learned how to make Tomato Gravy and Chicken & Dressing!! 





Starting the cornbread for the dressing!

Grandmother is starting the dumplings for me!





I've got DUMPLING talent!






Dropping them in!

Last Dumpling....Then the whole pot went to Dad's office
and Dad and Neil polished them off!

  1. Reese, This one is absolutely PRICELESS!! Thanks for sharing all of your experiences. But, I do believe the dumplings with Grandmother is the best one. I know all of you had fun in MANY ways making those dumplings!! Love you!! Aunt Virginia and Uncle Tim
