it's getting there!

I'm getting this blog MUCH closer to where I want it to be, but it's still a slight work in progress. I've been anxious to get this blog up and running efficiently in order to be a helpful tool for myself and others, but it's been hard balancing all of this alongside trying to manage all of life's obstacles and commitments! Thank you so much for your patience!

HOMEMADE SOUP DAY

It’s easy to open a can and heat up some premade soup, but soup is even better when it’s homemade. Soup is easy, cheap and usually quick to make and can be stuffed full of healthy vegetables. When better to enjoy a delicious bowl of soup than on Homemade Soup Day?


Whip out an old tried and true recipe that the whole family loves. If you're feeling adventurous, the internet is full of recipes for soup, just find one that sounds good enough to try. Then get out your big trusty cooking pot, or if you are able to plan ahead enough, throw all your stuff in the crockpot to slow cook. Make a simple batch for tonight or make a really big batch that you can either eat off of during the week or disperse into containers to add to the freezer for another week's meal. The sky's the limit.

  • White Chicken Chili Soup
  • Gumbo
  • Chili (does chili count as a soup??!)
