soup – Fork Vs Spoon

butternut squash soup with parmesan cheese crisps

My counter is full of squash. Acorn. Butternut. Spaghetti. All rolling around and teeter-tottering about like vegetable weeble wobbles. Squash was not meant to lay about on a countertop. I fear that they will eventually end up cracked and splattered on the floor before I find the time and energy to create a dish thatContinue reading “butternut squash soup with parmesan cheese crisps”

Tomato Corn Chowder

I am a chowder girl. All the way. OR chowda…if we are to be saying it correctly. Which I think we should be, even if we are in Ohio and a good days drive from any New England accent…which is sad, because I could listen to them talk for days. And driving 8+ hours toContinue reading “Tomato Corn Chowder”

Creamy Tomato Soup w/ Blue Cheese

Here we go again. Or I. But I like to think we are in this together. Since we are. So, it is a total we situation. Back to my normal…which, minus all the laundry and dishes and bill paying…kinda sorta rocks. Buuuuttt, no matter what you are returning to, coming back from vacation can beContinue reading “Creamy Tomato Soup w/ Blue Cheese”

Sausage, Bean, and Swiss Chard Soup

I made this soup Monday evening for dinner. It was after I had made a crisp ( to be posted about later this week) and was feeling like I needed to make something more , ah-hem, healthy to exist on. Monday was my day off/pay off for working the weekend. I find it to beContinue reading “Sausage, Bean, and Swiss Chard Soup”

Roasted Garlic and Ginger Carrot Soup

Have you ever turned yourself a color? A color different from what you were born with. A color different from what sun exposure can create. And no body paint was involved? Because, unless you are a Blue Man, you shouldn’t be using body paint….that is just plain strange. And strange…well I may not haveContinue reading “Roasted Garlic and Ginger Carrot Soup”

Lentil Soup

I feel like it was just yesterday that I started working nights. Adapting and conforming to a new schedule, a new pattern, finding what worked for me and then of course what didn’t. It probably feels like it was just yesterday because it took such a LONG time to make work. I never knew when to wake-up,Continue reading “Lentil Soup”

Post #101!!!!

This is post #101. Not that you are counting. But I am. Well, WordPress counts for me…so I have watched the number steadily climb week by week. And still the number took me by surprise. Not surprised in that 101 comes after 100, which in turn comes after 99, but that the number came upContinue reading “Post #101!!!!”

Creamy Pasta Fagioli Soup with Turkey Sausage

I am all confused on my days. Yesterday felt like Monday. Today feels like Tuesday. And if today feels like Tuesday then it also feels like I am missing my first day of work. And that makes me feel a bit anxious. And by bit, I mean real anxious. I keep looking down at my watch,Continue reading “Creamy Pasta Fagioli Soup with Turkey Sausage”

White Chicken Chili

I made this, I ate this, and then I swooned. Like, for real, swooned. I don’t know exactly what swooning entails, but if it includes sighing and muttering to oneself at how good something is…then, yes I definitely swooned. I don’t think there was any back of hand to forehead action, but that is aContinue reading “White Chicken Chili”

Roasted Pumpkin Soup

Up until today, I had never tasted pumpkin soup. So what possessed me to make pumpkin soup? I think it has something to do with the crisp fall air. Let me tell you, it has gone straight to my head. So much so, that the other day I walked into the grocery, saw these cute littleContinue reading “Roasted Pumpkin Soup”
