A Hearty, Healthy Winter Soup

    Blogger friend Kate shared this recipe recently and I gave it a try last night.  It was a big hit with my family and will grace our table again and again, I'm sure of it.   Winter Minestrone Soup - Delicious and good for you -  Some nice crusty garlic bread is an excellent compliment - we left it out because we're trying to reduce our bread intake.

  The weather in New England has been typically fickle as of late -  snow and freezing temps, some beautiful cold but sunny days... then a warming and rain.. chilly with black ice this morning.  That old saying about New England weather is true....  You don't like the weather right now?.. hold on a minute, it will change. A soup like this is perfect for warming your bones after outdoor chores or a day of chasing paper at the office...and, it nourishes the body, not just the soul.

  A note to some of you who leave lovely comments, compliments, and sometimes questions.... I would love to thank you or answer your questions but you have your e-mail blocked and this prevents me from being able to respond.  I want you to know I appreciate every kind word and really enjoy some of your comments. If you want to change that setting, here's how to do it... 

   It's a new day, all - make it a good one :-)
