Firstly I hope you had a wonderful holiday! update – I wrote this over a week ago but am posting it today for you! Yes I know you know this is one of my daughters recipes; I do that some times. Even though I had the week off last week and I should have spent time making new recipes. I failed and spent 3 days … Continue reading Japanese Soup Curry
For my birthday my daughter bought me a couple of books to help me learn how to hopefully make my blog better. I have been writing about food for 8 years now and I haven’t changed much since I started. I don’t think I have a bad blog but there is always room for improvement and I would really like to spend more time on … Continue reading Rustic Ribollita Soup
It is a blustery Sunday here in New Hampshire and soup is a good thing; albeit great thing to have simmering on the stovetop today – well I say that everyday. Or if you are so inclined throw one in your slow cooker. I am totally OK with either way you want to feed your soul. I am still pondering which soup I will be … Continue reading Cheeseburger Soup
I hope you made the most of whatever kind of Christmas you had – I am sure it was different in someway from years past. Mine was a little quieter and I think maybe a little less stressful. It usually takes me a few days to make the Christmas explosion in the house; that’s what I call it. I take down pretty much all of … Continue reading Leftover Prime Rib Soup
Butternut squash has become a staple around here for a few years now. Probably because we have been growing it in the garden and they really produce so we have a least a dozen to go through before it goes bad. My favorite way is to peel and chop it with a little olive oil salt and pepper and roast it in the oven. When … Continue reading butternut squash soup

Well my plan is to cook for everyone the only downfall at the moment is I cannot find any small turkeys. I prefer to make two small (10 pounds or under) birds versus … Continue reading Thanksgiving prep
It’s beginning to be a bit like groundhog day around here starting our 6th week working from home! At least that is what my daughter keeps saying. We both work for different companies albeit the companies share a parking lot but they couldn’t be more different. We also have different hours but I created a workstation for us both along one of the walls in … Continue reading Ham bone soup
you can’t tell me that won’t make an amazing stock How are you holding up? We are doing well though this morning made me “think” a little differently than my norm. I was about to make french toast and grabbed the dozen of eggs from the fridge and immediately thought; wow that’s going to use a lot of my eggs we should have something else. … Continue reading chicken and rice soup with homemade stock
Last weekend I made up for the lack of spending time in the kitchen. I almost made too many things if that is possible. We had leftovers all week long which for us is not a bad thing. I know so many people that do not like leftovers. I wonder why that is. Do they make things that don’t reheat well? What they ate … Continue reading Portuguese Braised Pork and Clams
I have said it before and I will say it over and over again; soup is good for the soul! Hope you have a safe happy healthy and prosperous New Year! I have had a cough since early November and I am sick of it! It started fast and furious and then subsided for a bit. Christmas day it decided to come back and bring … Continue reading Leftover Prime Rib Soup
