chicken pot pie for the soul

today was the perfect day for a good, homemade, hot-fresh-out-of-the-oven chicken pot pie. i hadn't made one in a while and had been craving one. so, i donned my apron today and set out to make one for dinner.

i carefully mixed up all the ingredients...

made the pie crust dough and rolled it out onto the counter - making a mess at it too.

tried to perfectly line my pie dish with the bottom layer of dough. it isn't perfectly round and it doesn't look as pretty and perfect as a marie calendar pot pie, but mine is better. it's made with more love and it's homemade. :)

topped with the second pie crust, it's now ready to go in the oven until golden brown!

40 minutes later - voowalah! ok. so the edges are a tad bit more brown than i would like, and it's not a picture perfect pot pie, but it tasted really good!
