Hot Soups for Cold Weather
With the cold weather upon us, we begin to crave comfort foods and hot soups.
Thanksgiving turkey is all gone by now, but I still have my homemade soup stock (frozen) from the turkey carcass which I cooked last Friday.

We all have our own way of measuring our success, and counting our blessings.
As for me, I feel very fortunate to have wonderful children, and now adorable grandchildren.

I just baked another loaf of homemade bread, using the Dutch Oven.
This time I got a little more adventurous, and modified the original recipe, to create a more flavorful bread.

It is a light recipe, since it has less sugar and fat, than my other recipe for Decadent Chocolate Banana Bread, posted earlier.
This banana bread is very light and airy. The coconut and cinnamon flavors add to its exotic aroma.

My two year old grandson’s favorite song is “Old McDonald had a farm”. He also enjoys books about farm animals, and just loves riding with his dad on a tractor, while mowing their lawn.
His mom knew exactly what theme he will select for his second birthday party, so it turned out to be “McAidan’s” Farm Theme.
