    Today is a soup day. Yes…in San Antonio…in the middle of August.

    Some kind of freak weather pattern and it’s been low of 72 all week. I know…not really that cold, but cold enough for fleeces and soup 😉 We’ll be back to tank tops and flipflops next week!

    (Not really…but I’m sharing this now because it’s freezer friendly, delicious and needs to be on your menu soon!)

    It’s a fun challenge,
    and my pocketbook
    thanks me.
