Georgia This week was my choice. So I chose soups and stews. Hello! Today is the first day of winter and nothing sounds better than a hot pot of soup or stew. I made this oh so delish pot of beef barley stew. The recipe is actually a soup.. But I coated my beef chunks in flour before browning it. Which gave the soup a rich stew like consistency. Jen This is the perfect time of year for soups and stews! In Phoenix this past week we hit a low temp of 39 degrees in the morning….BRRRRR! A nice warm bowl of food is perfect on a cold day. I’m sure I have mentioned before that I like to cook with ingredients that are on sale, or things I need to use up before they expire. Well, stews are PERFECT for using up vegetables. This time I made a stew of random stuff that turned out amazing. It doesn’t have a name, so I guess we can call it “Random Carrot Stew”! I love that my crock pot can be used on the stovetop too – I was able to brown the sausage first and then set the crock into the slow cooker all afternoon. By dinner time the whole house smelled so good!! The other nice part about stews is that I can prep and forget about it until I am ready to eat. It’s a busy time of year trying to get ready for Christmas, which is now less than a week away! Wishing everyone a Merry Christmas!! Amanda Good morning, I was not able to make soup this week. Work and holiday preparations took over all my free time. I wanted to wish everyone a Merry Christmas. Hope you all have a wonderful day. Sincerely, Mandy Amy As fate would have it my latest issue of Milk Street magazine arrived and there is an excellent soup recipe contained within. Without further ado Nikita Nikita and family are spending Christmas in Germany this year. Living the dream. Can't wait to hear all about this latest adventure FYI..

Until next week we all wish you a very Merry Christmas, Georgia, Jen, Amanda, Amy and Nikita
