hello dolls! it has been way too long.
i wish i could tell you i was doing something constructive
with my free time, but with the waning daylight hours,
the craziness of retail life, and taking care of the cutest baby
on earth, i have been doing not much else.
one thing i did manage to do was cook a yummy soup,
perfect for cold nights like the ones we have been having
here in boston, as of late.
here's the recipe, if you care to try it!
