What a lovely recipe. This is my first visit to your blog. I found you by chance and had planned only to say hello before moving on. I, instead, started reading your earlier posts and stayed far longer than I planned. I really like your recipes and the tone of your blog. I'll be back as often as I can. I hope you are having a great day. Blessings...Mary.
Yum - I could do with some of that soup right now to warm my cold hands!
Thank you!! Gosh I'm flattered! My blog has been sadly neglected, but your lovely comments inspire me to get on and post more of my meals....
