Soup, Pears, and Playtime

The temperature here dropped to the 20's last night, so I made soup to warm us all up.  I admit, I had my doubts that the kids would eat this soup, and I was pretty sure a few would refuse to even taste it.

I've been experimenting this week with sweet potatoes.  They were on sale, so I stocked up on some.  This recipe comes from Allrecipes, and contains sweet potatoes, carrots, an onion and an apple.  It also contains freshly grated ginger and red lentils too.

Seasons Change

Our first snow this winter.  Fall was here yesterday, and gone today.

I took Alias out this morning, and he slipped on ice.  His response was funny.  It was like he was asking me, "What the heck? Who put this stuff here?"
