Making a soup is easy, but you should be prepared to invest some time in it to allow everything to come together in the pot. Here are three ideas for some great winter warmers.
A few weeks ago Al attended a lovely holiday party where each couple was asked to contribute to the dinner table. Since our format was an informal buffet, and since we all wanted to have little plates to go with our little glasses of wine, he thought a couple pots of bubbling fondue would be just the thing.
