So my plan WAS to pitch this as your next must-make cozy winter meal.
But Mother Nature is screwing that up! This warm streak of weather has been L-O-V-E-L-Y but so unexpected. I’m still down for soup and sweater weather, but I think I may be alone. People are eating up this spring-like weather like crazy. Not that I blame them. I just wasn’t quite ready to say goodbye to cozy time. Also, side bar: I kind of think it means our world is ending.

Hi, hi! Happy 2017 to you and yours! Here’s hoping for an amazing new year. 2016 was not my favorite year, but I have a lot to be grateful for. My healthy, happy little family. My job.

We get a real one, and last year, we bought it a touch too early and the darn thing was practically dead by Christmas Eve. So, we’re holding out until this weekend to get it up….
