Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
The chowder is now ready to serve. Snuggle up on the sofa and enjoy! This is great served with some crusty French bread or toasted French bread. I like to serve it VERY thick but some folks don't like it too thick. Great on a really cold day! Some folks like to add celery and / or parsley or even chopped pimentos, but I don't like the flavor and color it adds. ~ Uncle Tom
