I've been gone approximately five weeks out of this summer and I think this blog kind of reflects that. It's been go, go, go with so many things…. I was teaching in a retirement home last week and my friend brought me this little batch of veggies. I put the peppers in stir fry and ate the tomatoes like popcorn. Oh! So good!
With the cooler evenings, I can't help but gear up for soup season. It's my favorite food to make and so to honor that, I picked up this book. It's supposed to be here tomorrow! Chop. Saute. Stir. I'm excited.

I just made the Roasted Leek & Potato soup. Very yummy! But didn’t use anywhere near the 7 POUNDS of leeks called for!
