I must not like to blog!

It's funny I have not been here in a looooong while. I must not like blogging? I just like having a blog! Hahaha
Well let's see what is on the kitchen table these days.......pretty much anything you can shake a spoon at! Meaning lot's and lot's of soups! Winter and our farmer's market are a good combo for soup in the winter. Though it is supposed to be 74 here today. Seems more like grilling weather to me! This weeks soup was potato and leek. Super yummy! Used a lot of white pepper so it gave it a good kick!
A couple weeks ago I invented a black garbonzo bean marsala soup. That was interesting. Got the beans from the farmer's market and was told they were hard to soften and to try pressure cooking them after soaking all night. I don't have a lot of experience with my cooker but found the directions (thank god) and was able to use it without hurting myself or making a big mess. Worked really well. The soup was different but tasty!
Next soup is a broccoli and cashew soup. I love that one as well. Good lunch soup.
I do my 5 minute bread recipe and a salad and there you go! Cheap and good for you!
I think today should be a grill day though. These rare warm winter days are foolers and you need to take advantage of them while you can.
So I will try and be better at posting. I don't really have any follower's so i am mainly writting this to see myself talk! (that's funny)
Oh I watched a how to knit a sock video this morning. Might be trying my hand at that. There is always something new I want to try and never enough time!
TTFN!

Grilling! Any weather is grilling weather in Iowa... Maggie and John made pizza last weekend, and it was probably 20 degrees outside. ;)
