Yes it was. Starting at breakfast. Thinking of something for dinner. The arrival from Angel Petrogallo of a wonderful Broccoli Shred Soup – Doctored it somewhat, but very little – and then a good, I think, chicken dinner with candied carrots. Then Robin says she wanted a plum cake (pictured here) and she had a recipe. Only thing is, one must wait 24 hours before eating. “They” say it’s better! You be the judge. Here is our day of cooking. Oh, by the way. We did receive our autographed copy of Two Million Meals Later – House Recipes from Boise’s Brick Oven Bistro today. This is going to be a fun cookbook. Yup! One more for our library. Enjoy.

Yes, I did change it, but only slightly. I added a very little, maybe a 1/4 cup of cream and a dash of salt. It was an awesome soup! Thanks Angel.
