Soup's Up

Image
First and foremost, I'd like to apologize to my avid readers for neglecting my blogging duties the past few weeks. I know this must have pained you all horribly. School has just started kicking into gear and I've been a little busy reading textbooks and pretending to do schoolwork. As many of you are probably aware, Purim is coming up. In preparation for this exciting holiday, I have made a very very very large pot of vegetable soup to be frozen and given out as shaloch manos. Now, before you get your hopes up, let me just say that I will not be giving out very many shaloch manos. In fact, I'll probably only really be giving shaloch manos to my family and my in-laws. However, if on Sunday you feel you would like some soup to contribute to your seudah, call me and let me know and I may be able to bring some over. Now on to the cooking discussion. I found this recipe a while back while hunting for soup recipes. I was doing so because I have repeatedly decided to start...

Pretty, pretty snow...

So, it's been a bit since my last post. Nothing too exciting to report. I'm back from Israel and started classes, which seem like they'll be pretty easy this semester. Of course, today we got 26" of snow, which is pretty sweet. Yaakov and I stayed in and had some cholent (which came out pretty bland this week...) and sat on the couch reading all day. I do love the snow when I have nowhere to go. It's pretty and peaceful. When I was a kid, I used to love to go outside in the snow, lie down and just enjoy the feeling of snowflakes gently falling on my face. Sometimes I feel like I'd love to do that again, but it just isn't as enjoyable these days. Maybe it's because my clothes aren't as waterproof as they used to be... Anyway, that's really all I've got to say tonight. So...BYE!! :)
