Dilo's Chicken Corn Chowder

took me a long time to perfect this, but now that I feel it can't get any better (and the family feels the same). It's definitely a family favorite and requested when people come to visit. I started with basic chicken corn chowder and added sweet potatoes one time and loved it. But it still wasn't quite there, then the key was a bit of cinnamon for flavoring. This bides well on a cold rainy or snowy day.
