When I was in college, I had the opportunity to eat a meal at the home of our dean of students, Dr. Berg. This recipe is one that they "figured out" trying to copy something they had eaten at a local restaurant. Thus we have assigned the name, "Berg Chicken" to it. This is a crowd pleaser and is absolutely delicious. Not only does it taste great, but the finished product looks great on a plate. Serve with a fresh salad, variety of grilled vegetables and rolls for a wonderful meal!

Makes about 36
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 tablespoon baking soda
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon salt
1-1/2 cups butter (at room temperature)
1-1/2 cups granulated sugar
1-1/2 cups packed light-brown sugar
3 large eggs
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
3 cups semisweet chocolate chips
3 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
2 cups sweetened flake coconut
2 cups chopped pecans
Preheat oven to 350 F. Mix flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and salt in bowl. In 8-quart bowl, beat butter on medium speed until smooth and creamy, 1 minute. Gradually beat in sugars; beat to combine, 2 minutes. Add eggs, one at a time, beating after each. Beat in vanilla extract. Stir in flour mixture until just combined. Add chocolate chips, oats, coconut and pecans. For each cookie, drop 1/4 cup dough onto ungreased baking sheets, spacing 3 inches apart. Bake for 17 to 19 minutes, until edges are lightly browned; rotate sheets halfway through. Remove cookies from rack to cool. Makes about 3 dozen cookies.

Grammie's Veggie Soup
With Fall in the air and Winter just around the corner, there is never a more perfect time for Soup, and lots of it. Here is my favorite vegetable soup...so much is it my favorite, that Grammie makes it often when we go to visit. I wish that was able to be more frequently, but since we are a little farther away than we used to be, I just have to make my own...This recipe is very simple and extremely yummy!!
Ingredients:
3-4 RED potatoes (palm sized), cubed
1 medium onion, chopped
2 cans butter beans (or 4 cups frozen)
2 cans okra (or 4 cups frozen)
2 cans cream-style corn
2 cans whole corn
1 can tomato sauce
water
salt
sugar
worcestershire sauce
Combine the ingredients above in a large pot and cover with water. Cook until potatoes are tender. Season to taste with salt, sugar and worcestershire sauce.
Can add chopped tomatoes if you have tomato lovers in your house. We have one tomato lover, so I usually opt to leave those out.
