You said chicken and dumpling,s normally in a large stock pan with chicken broth chicken meat, flour dough dumplings spooned into the broth..We Okies still make it......the gravy is from corn starch in da dumplings...Some use milk, some just water, depended how poor you was...And not charging a fee for protection, what is happening to this metro-sexual Navy?For now, the Navy escorts will only apply to American ships, defense officials said. This week, the Pentagon said the U.S. was bound by treaties to protect the Marshall Island cargo ship, but said it was trying to resolve the dispute through diplomatic channels.
