Thanks so much for the kind words about the Rachel Ray show calling! Not sure what will come of it…but I will keep you posted!
Also, foyer remodeling is just about done! Painters are here today!! Can’t wait to show pictures!!! Ok…onto a new soup…this is soup is more like a chowder…which I love! Fabulous paired with a favorite salad and some crunchy french bread!

This soup is so easy…and so yummy…you can thank me later :) With all the snow and wind and rain—it is nice to have a good hearty warm soup at the end of the day!
