5:45

5:48
out our side dish
5:58
finalist
6:01
now this is Kathy down on the in y'all
6:05
she's from pal Bay
6:08
Florida and she made the shrimp corn
6:13
chowder Kathy we're so H happy to have
6:16
you here tonight I'm so proud to be
6:20
here uh Lori why don't you tell Kathy a
6:24
little bit about what you thought about
6:25
her dish Kathy I thought you made really
6:28
good use of the cream cheese in your
6:31
soup and it really gave the soup a nice
6:35
texture it was creamy it was velvety but
6:37
it didn't seem really heavy and I think
6:40
the shrimp stock the shrimp stock really
6:42
thinned it out and and made it very
6:44
flavorful and I love how you shaved the
6:47
shrimp very thin so you didn't get big
6:49
old chunks of shrimp in every bite and I
6:52
I think it's a great summertime dish
6:54
because you could really cut some fresh
6:56
sweet corn in there and just make it
6:58
great you did a great job thank you so
7:00
much and uh it it was it was just
7:04
delicious and uh it's women like Kathy
7:08
y'all that make me proud to
7:12
say I am a woman I am in her class and
7:17
her category because she works with
7:20
disabilities what disabil
7:28

7:35
them you know my mine and Bubba my
7:38

7:45
both lost them when they were very young

disability and they never allowed it to
7:58
