I'm not driving up there this afternoon to hold your hand, but 'tween me and Bev we can walk you through chicken soup. And you don't have to use fresh, either -- frozen chicky is fine!! Put it in a pot with some celery and carrot and onion and potato, add sage and salt and pepper and cover it with water and there you go. You can do it in a crockpot or the oven or on top of the stove. It's awful hard to ruin it. Really. Just cook it slow for a long time. After a while you will totally amaze yourself -- it will smell just DELICIOUS in your house and you won't believe it's you making that wonderful aroma!!

After you cook it for a long long time, just pour off the broth and refrigerate it. Take the chicken out and throw the vegetables away. Eat the chicken, or make some chicken cacciatore, or chicken and noodles, or chicken salad.

After the chicken broth has been in the fridge for a while you can take the fat off the top (it will solidify in the fridge and be floating on the top) and you will have some delicious chicky soup!!
