WWEW:Crockpot Corn Chowder

Hi guys! I hope you're having a great day so far. Okay, so I know today is actually FRIDAY and not Wednesday, but I was so anxious to share with you the gender of our baby, I decided to post that Wednesday and this today. Anyway, for Christmas we got a large crockpot from my in-laws. I couldn't wait to use it! So what else did I do, but go searching on pinterest. I found a few different recipes, but this one stood out, so I decided to give it a try. Today, I am sharing with you a recipe for a delicious week night meal. Corn Chowder!
