Where are we today ?
Another nice night and the weather is getting a bit warmer. First thing after starting a pot of coffee was to start the Ham and Bean soup boiling. Love using the mix and so easy to make. The ham bones I had boiled last night and let the broth cool overnight to skim off the excess fat. In less than two hours we have a huge pot of very tasty soup. Which will get eaten over the next few days.
excellent bean soup |
tasty |
lookin down the road |
this tasty too and very popular |
We all gathered at daughter # 1's house in Aurora about 90 minutes from here north of Toronto.
All arrived around noon catching up with each others lives since we last got together last October. Such a wonderful time to see everyone again, and the grands, such great kids and bundles of energy.
Happy Easter Grandad and Grandma |

ReplyDeleteLove bean soup, made one last week. Just lentils, pinto beans and tomatoes. So simple, but good and lasted for three meals.
We love it too, and with two big ham bones really works for us.
