Carole saw my post about Chicken Barley Soup where I posted a photo of my soup next to a plate of bread. Forget the soup, baby, what’s that bread?!?!? Well, it’s not MY bread. I haven’t baked bread in… gee, must be 5 months? Now that we have our kitchen back, I’ll probably start it [...]

We’re cooking again! After the massive 4-month kitchen renovation, we’re back at the stove. This recipe is perfect for a cool, autumn day. Chicken soup can be bland (which is why I don’t make it very often), but I have found that the Salamida Pinch seasoning makes the big difference. The soup is very savory [...]
