Baked Fish Chowder

Back into the kitchen I go. I kind of miss cooking just not quite enough to actually do it. I like the idea of dinner but this last deployment has just knocked everything out of me. Christopher has been home a couple of months and I have yet to settle back into my previous routine of work and home. Bare with me.
