Continue reading →: soup’s on ~ mushroom soupIf you’ve been around here at all, you know I love me a nourishing bowl of soup. It’s just so comforting when the thermometer’s falling, and something light, when a heavy meal is just too much for a warm day. My df girl is all in. She also enjoys soup,…

Continue reading →: love is in the airThat time of year when we celebrate love is almost upon us. To be truthful, we enjoy the day, but don’t make too much of it. My children have been (and a couple still are) homeschooled, so we’ve never had a need to do the big valentine card thing, save…

Continue reading →: soup’s on ~ borschtWe have a dear, long-time friend whose mother taught me much about Polish food, and much about motherhood.

Continue reading →: o holy nightWe’ve been enjoying days filled with the sounds of Christmas (see here and here, too). There are just so many wonderful songs to get you in the Christmas spirit. I love the contemporary renditions of old and new favourites by the Gardiner Sisters, Pentatonix, Michael Bublé, the jazzy tones of…
