I have a new member of my family! A son-in-law….a wonderful man who is a perfect match for my incredible daughter.
His first attempt to win us over was to make a batch of his favourite soup…his go to meal.
He was in with the first spoonful of his tasty soup.
This soup represents family, warmth, gatherings, togetherness and well being.
It is now my go to meal with a few little healthy additions.
