We are enjoying the beauty of the frigidity in our area!
I giggled the whole day trying to remember the exact phrase that he used. I don't know the tech words so I am paraphrasing his choice words. How we shovel our children out of their devices is our distinct dilemma.
Today is a 2 hour delay because of the cold, lets see if we can catch another sunrise together and oogle at it?Wednesday, January 7, 2015
BRRRRRR! Baby it's cold. {For the love of 106} Potato Soup.
Yesterday's soup was a little different. I remembered, with fondness, a cup of soup that was part of my 20 something anniversary dinner. We went to "Carrabas" Ben and I and this cup of soup went right into my soul, it seemed. Delectable, was the only word to describe it. I don't usually like potatoes, but I had read a book called "Potatoes, Not Prozac!" so that is why I ate the potato soup that night, before my supper. It was delicious! I loved it. Yesterday, I tried to recreate it, thanks to a video recipe that I found. I ate 4 bowls throughout the day. Ezra ate it somewhat heartily and he is my most difficult to cram soupy veggies into.
Spinach in the mix and the last touch of celery, not totally softened into the creamery mix made it wonderful for me. I left out the bacon, for the most part. I baked a heavy bread and hopefully the results will stay on my college woman's ribs through the cold winter, when we drop her back to school this coming weekend. I celebrated Mu with the memory of watching my children enjoy the cramming of veggies into their bodies. that is love, eh?this is a link to the soup video, enjoy!Title- The Studious One!

Are you going to Mary Immaculate?
Apricots, Chocolate Cherries and Pie,
Remember me to the one who lived there,
He once was a true love of mine,
Tell him to buy me an acre of land,
Apricots, Chocolate Cherries and Pie,
Between the muddy Hudson in Jamaica Bay,
Then, He’ll be a true love of mine,
Tell him to sow in it seeds of pure cream,
Apricots, Chocolate Cherries and Pie,
And build Ice cream mountains and buildings of whipped cream,
Then, He’ll be a true love of mine,
Tell him to reap them with sickles of M&M’s,
Apricots, Chocolate Cherries and Pie,
And chew bubble gum and eat till we’re done,
Then, He’ll be a true love of mine.
Tell him to run it off down the motor parkway,
Apricots, Chocolate Cherries and Pie,
After your done 50 pushups
and jog down the West Side Highway,
Then he’ll be a true love of mine…
(Don’t wait for me today dad, The kids are sick again, My tummy’s bulging again, My heart is aching again, And now there’s no love there…)
He once was, a true love of mine….So, Girls, I do beg you don't miss your Daddy,Apricots, Chocolate cherries and Pie,You have one short chance to see him on this side, Go visit him and let your light shine.
