Imagine you are going to an upholstery store in High Point North Carolina and these are the driving instructions; continue straight to stay on N Centennial St, turn right on Richardson Ave and then left at the Chest of drawers with the socks hanging out. What the…?
High Point North Carolina is known as the furniture capital of the world. How do stand out from the rest? You turn your building into a bureau. Originally built by the High Point Chamber of Commerce in 1926 the bureau stood 32 feet tall, 14 feet deep, and 27 feet wide complete with a metal screen mirror on top. The inscription at the bottom of the bureau paid homage to the names of the local men serving overseas in the military. The world’s largest chest of drawers has been remodeled several times throughout the years.
In 1996 High Point designer and craftsman, Sid Lenger, transformed the aging withered bureau into a giant 18th century cherry-wood Goddard-Townsend block-and-shell chest with brass handles. Two six feet tall socks hangout of the drawer as a nod to the area's hosiery industry.
In 2003 a real estate developer slapped battleship grey paint and neon colors for the socks. Finally, in 2018 the fate of the chest of drawers fell into the hands of the High Point University. The university tracked down Sid Lenger's original paint formula restoring the chest's cherry wood finish. The socks repainted with hometown colors and patterns used by the University and the city's minor league baseball team.

Are ya ready for some Clam Chowdah?
There is nothing more soul-loving than a soup. I am not talking about a thin soup but a hearty, rich thick soup that sticks to your ribs. I usually make this in my HOTLOGIC but since I promised to share some recipes done otherwise, well, it was quite the adventure and worth it 100%!
If you are still feeling the winter chill, you can warm up your bones with this soul-loving soup. What I love about this recipe is you can easily make it dairy free by using coconut milk. I used full heavy cream and it did not disappoint. This really is a gut loving formula full of iodine from the seafood, veggies rich in minerals and protein to keep your immune system healthy. This hearty soup is wonderful for dinner, lunch, or, in my case, perfect for breakfast too. Oh and it is gluten free including the crackers, low carb, keto friendly and dairy free if you use coconut milk.
This chowder makes 4-6 servings depending on how much you eat at one serving. The best part, have your freshly cooked soup for a meal, then portion out the rest into glass bowls with a tight fitting lid that can be frozen for another day. Imagine opening up your freezer wondering what is for dinner or lunch on the go, and, right there, yes, that’s it, a frozen meal of love! Take it out of the freezer, pop it into your HOTLOGIC and let it warm up to the perfect temperature, ready when you are! It doesn’t get any better than that!
As I was setting up, Zazu kept a lazy eye on me while he was lounging on the couch. I pulled out one ingredient from the fridge, and he was up running to the other side of the coach. How the heck does he know? As he sits on his perch, he takes in the inventory, and there, it, is! He just knows! He sits, watching ever so carefully waiting patiently for when the halibut is going to make it's stage entrance! Zazu and Jagster enjoyed their little afternoon raw treat once it was opened. The Clam Chowder was so good! And you know what? It was even better the next day!
