I made this this past Saturday to serve at Easter Sunday dinner. The dumplings were delicious and a hit. BUT the 12 ounces of soda is just too much and in doing some research I see that the Pioneer Woman (Ree Drummond) has changed the quantity of soda to 2/3 of a 12 ounce can OR 1 of the smaller cans. Due to the full can of soda the dish came out of the oven with too much liquid in it and I was concerned. Even though there was still a lot of liquid after the dish was re-heated for serving, the flavor and texture of the dumplings was so delicious. I can't wait to have occasion to make them again and see how they come out using the lower amount of soda.

<p>I'm a WAHM of 2. I paint and sell my original shabby and primitive signs in my online stores called the Shabby Sign Shoppe. Keeps me busy and helps keep the roof over our heads, but takes away from two favorite pastimes--cooking and working in the yard.</p>
<p>To be in the kitchen uninterrupted is my form of relaxation and I try to get in there and cook at least 2-3 good meals a week. I'm trying to get healthier with cooking, but it is so hard with all these amazing Food.com recipes shouting Make Me, Make Me. I discovered Recipezaar in 2002. I tell EVERYONE about it and it's definately my go-to recipe site. Other sites pale in comparison.</p>
<p>Whenever I search for a recipe, Recipezaar never lets me down. I typically ONLY try 5 star recipes, but sometimes will try unrated ones if I am feeling frisky and the recipe is from a chef I'm familar with. Kittencal, MizzNezz and Wildflour are 3 of my favorites.</p>
<p>Diehard foodies tend to annoy. I should know because I used to be one! Culinary school will do that to you, but it's just not living in the real world.</p>
