A cold rain has been drizzling down for days now and snow is even expected later tonight which is a treat for the kiddos around this area. We rarely see snow and it usually melts within a day or two. With all this dreary weather, I’m starting to feel like a bear entering hibernation. Cold winter nights call for comfort food! So into the kitchen I go to cook up a hearty dish of Creamy Chicken & Wild Rice Soup with melted Swiss and Gruyere cheese! This soup comes is loaded with nutty wild rice ...
