The best phrase to describe this soup is “comfort in a bowl”. Even though “comfort in a cup” sounds better, turkey noodle soup is so amazing, you are definitely going to want more than a cup worth! Bring on the biggest bowl in the house!

Friday night. Date night at home. Candlelit dinner near the crackling fire, cloth napkins, flowers in a glass vase, pretty dishes, something special for dessert, and no calorie counting – just food so delicious you can’t hold in that big sigh.
Clam Chowder – Gluten Free
Some times I’m amazed at how incredible my kids are. And I am very thankful both kids survived childhood. 🙂 As a home school mom that worked part-time, and cared for my disabled husband, their survival is even more remarkable.

That is exactly the mouthful we should all be having at this very moment. We recently enjoyed dinner at … Read more Smoked Burgers with Bourbon-Bacon Jam and Brie
