A Fancy Luncheon

I was invited to a lovely luncheon on Monday and just wooed over the sweetness of it.  We had three beautiful courses on the most dainty china.  Amazing tomato basil soup, scrumptious squash lasagna with fresh vegetables, plus a fabulously rich cake.  I'm still dreaming about it.  Thanks for the invitation Lois.

Graphic Recipes

I'm taking a little break from cheese to show you my latest project.  Someone lovely asked me to draw her mom's special recipe as a holiday gift and this is the result.  I was so inspired that I decided to offer this same idea to others.  You can find out more here. Have a wonderful Monday!

Stock Pot

Lynn from Mama Says requested that I draw a stock pot for her...because soup is her forte. I love soup, especially unique recipes, so look forward to continually checking out her blog...so you may see one of her recipes pop up in the future. {reserved}

Strawberry Soup

When my son was in preschool he came home one day singing "strawberry soup". I'm not sure if it was a song he learned or created himself, but I always loved this idea of a cool, sweet, red soup.

Crock Pot Magic

I only discovered crock pot magic a few years ago when a co-worker mentioned the fabulous roast she was cooking at home (MJ!). It was amazing to think you could throw some meat and vegetables into a large porcelain container, turn it on, then return eight hours later to a wonderful meal. Today my favorite crock pot meal is vegetable soup - something I can actually cook from scratch and still taste good. {available}

Potato Soup

A kind lunch invitation to our neighbor's house this past weekend resulted in a warm bowl of potato soup. As our hosts said, "its a comfort food." Oh my, it sure was. So comfortable we ate and talked until almost dinner-time. We then politely scooted out. We have to keep it even-keel in hopes for a future soup invite. By the way, does anyone out there have a great (easy) potato soup recipe? {available}
