Thus when the kids knew that I am serving this for dinner, they were looking forward. Even son make an attempt to be home for dinner.
While serving it, my family commented that I have not done this dish for a long time. Perhaps I should to entice son to eat dinner with us more often (wink).
This is definitely nice to have on a cold night.
