Sometimes stuff said in my head doesn’t always pan out outside my head. No doubt I’ve hurt a few feelings. I’m always sorry.

Who I Side With…Bernie Sanders It Appears
We are in the midst of a political campaign here in the United States and I took a quiz on who I side with the most and Bernie Sanders was a bit of a surprise. Hillary Clinton is a very close second. I haven’t made up my mind between the two. There is no way I would back any Republican running because they are way too far to the right for my taste.
I don’t care who you support, just be sure to vote in the primaries and the general. Your voice does count.
Enzo’s Tomato Bisque
This is my favorite tomato soup. It’s better than stuff from the big soup maker with the red label. This recipe is easy to make too and will warm you up. Paired with a grilled cheese sandwich makes an awesome meal.
I developed this recipe because I missed the delicious tomato soup at a local market when it closed.
- 32 oz vegetable broth
- 2 28-30 oz cans crushed tomatoes
- 2 10 oz cans tomato sauce
- 1 tbsp dried or fresh dill weed*
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- Salt and white pepper to taste
- 1 pint half-and-half
Add first 7 ingredients to slow cooker and cook on high 2-4 hours or low 4-6 hours. Turn off heat and stir in half-and-half until incorporated. If smoother texture is desired, blend with immersion blender or transfer to regular blender in batches.
*(Basil or other herb can be substituted if preferred.)
On My Way Home
On the way home I saw the parking lot of the nearby liquor store was pretty full. No I didn’t go in just made a situational observation. The weather is going to get pretty cold. I guess some folks want something to warm them up. Some vino would be kind of nice now.
Flashback Friday: Time Marches On – Tracy Lawrence
I am a big fan of 1990’s country music and this song by Tracy Lawrence tells a story that time does march on, things do change, people are different as time goes on.
It’s Been A Day
Today has been challenging and dreary. Work and the weather have occupied me most of the day. I am very ready for the weekend. Good news is that I seemed to have made it through. Next week has to be better, I hope!
