Posted on July 27, 2015 by in vegetarian
Cream of tomato soup is such a retro retro. Cream of tomato soup is not something that I grew up with. I can imagine my mom presenting her meat-eating husband with a bowl of cream of tomato soup and call it supper. Maybe that would have caused somewhat of a hiccup in their 50+ years […]

Posted on April 4, 2015 by in seafood

Brioche is […]
