Corn Chowder
The Royal CookI'm not a fan of the cold. The kids get stir crazy, which drives me crazy and makes me grumpy. And it's cold. I really, really don't like to be cold. When I start to shiver I really shiver. It takes, what seems like, forever to warm up and then my body aches because of the shivers.
