Recipe Requests
I was just wondering if anyone had a recipe that I've been looking for. I think it was called Chicken Christopher. I had it at a pretty swanky restaurant with my parents several years ago but can't afford to go back. If anyone can help, it would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Jeggie from Elberton, GA

Hello Frugal Readers,
I was wanting to know what can I do to make a good cup of coffee. Is there a secret to it? I always start with good cold water and a name brand coffee like Folgers. I always keep my coffee pot clean, but the coffee seems to be lacking something and I am not sure what. Do you have any ideas?
Thanks,
Teresa from VA
