The third Saturday in October

This weekend was the clash of crimson and orange! Everywhere you looked there was a spot of Tennessee orange, luckily the crimson prevailed in this old time rivalry!

Simmering Soup

Since it is actually starting to feel like fall around here, I have been constantly craving soup!

Here are a couple of hearty soup recipes to warm you up on a brisk fall day.


Chicken Noodle Soup
My mom always makes homemade chicken noodle soup and I can never get enough of it!

Taco Soup
A easy and flavorful recipe!

Don't have the time to whip up these recipes? If you have a Corner Bakery or La Madeleine near by, drop in and buy a jar of yummy Tomato Basil soup!

Happy cooking!
