The show is up and running and now I'm bored. Too early for gardening, too early for integrating new chickens, too early for..... pretty much anything I want to do. The internet is completely bereft of any good UFO stuff right now . No new sightings of aliens,chupacabra,swamp monsters or anything else .........So, I'm looking for Ida to entertain me. And I think I will let her entertain me with classic corn chowder.. I've made this chowder several times with a minor change. I add a little finely chopped carrot.
