Baby it’s cold outside…. I mean it’s freaking freezing cold outside and I had to make some homemade tomato soup. I just had too! It’s 2 o’clock and my phone says it’s 5 degrees outside (we rarely have 5 degree days in Denver) and we also received over six inches of light fluffy snow. The
Southwest Chicken Soup
So my gal pals from high school and me decided to skip the 25th reunion and meet someplace fun. We picked Sedona, AZ for a relaxing place to go. Lots of hikes, spa day, hanging by the pool, shopping, food and wine. (Did I say wine)? It was a perfect week in the Southwest.
Cincinnati Chili
Growing up in Cincinnati, we knew nothing but Cincinnati chili, heck we hardly even knew of Texas or for that matter green chili! Cincinnati Chili was it, the be all and end all, the bomb. To us Cincinnatians, it is and always will be the best chili in the world. For the past 25 years
Acorn Squash Soup
So fall has been in the air for a week now, well not really. It was in the 80’s and sunny this week and today it cold and snowy. Okay, it’s Fall in Colorado and time for soup. Acorn Squash soup that is! On days like today, it’s pretty much perfect. A day at home,

Ratatouille

Corn and Leek Chowder
Corn and Leek Chowder is on the menu today. Every State claims they have the BEST corn ever. I’m sure it is. I grew up in Ohio, we got our corn, the salt and pepper kind, at Aicholtz Farm, (now Newtown Market) it was yummy. I also remember devouring really good sweet corn on
Zucchini Soup
Zucchini Soup is on the menu today! I apologize in advance… I have Zucchini coming out of my ears and there may be a few posts involving zucchini! My garden is going gang busters and besides giving away a ton of zucchini already, I still need to figure out what to do with the
