Chicken Pot Pie

One of my favorite things about using skype is to check in with our two year old nephew, Owen. He is really talking a lot these days. We normally just smile and agree with whatever he says...not knowing half the time what he is talking about. The other day, though, he so clearly was telling us about Rachel Ray. (Apparently he's been watching a little cooking on tv) Joe and I both looked at each other and said, "Did he just say 'Rachel Ray'?"
 Katy then began quizzing our sweet nephew... "Owen, what does Rachel Ray do?"
 Owen says "cook"
 Katy asks, "Owen, who else likes to cook?"
 Owen replys, "Ams" (that's me in case you were confused!)
 Katy asks, "What does Ams like to cook?"
 Owen grins while saying, "cookies!!!!"

Auntie Ams was is the kitchen again tonight. Cookies? Nope! Not this time... Tonight's feature was Chicken Pot Pie.

I had a good friend come over and help me cook. I asked her if she was up for an American meal. She's such a trooper! She loved helping me in the kitchen. We even successfully used a pressure cooker for the first time. (I'm definitely going to be using that thing more now that I can cook chicken in 10 minutes instead of 30) 

I was a little worried that she might not think it was spicy enough. So I made sure to put a little pack of Domino's chili flakes at her place setting. 

She loved the prep work/cooking and the food. She didn't even add the chili flakes I provided. 
I call tonight a cooking success!
