I'm back in the saddle agin

Nothing like homemade split pea soup on a cold day! It's still cooking. (I had to add some wine...that is a must). I made bread, it's rising still, or would show picture. The dessert...why chocolate pie! More calories than I want to add, but hey, my #2 is here with her boyfriend. My sidekick looks out for pieces on the floor....Mr. Chauncey.
