Burrrrr! "Baby its cold outside!" As almost all of us are saying today. Even with the sun shining(thankfully) I want to stay close to the gas fireplace, which does put out some heat. All I can think of is eating soup. Now I am not an expert on soup ,even though I know what I like. ... Campbell's tomato soup is my all time favorite, as well as, Lipton's Noodle soup. (Have you seen that lipton's now makes it with extra noodles? umm good!
When I was growing up my grandmother, "Gam", (she was the original Gam), made the best homemade vegetable soup. Even as I was a young Mom, she was making and sharing a take home container with me. My kids called "it Gam's homemade Campbell soup." It was a meal in itself.
I have tried to make vegetable soup and it's ok,but it just does'nt taste like Gam's did. Maybe it was'nt so much the soup that I liked ,as much as ,my Gam's time and company.
I only hope that my own grandchildren, Will , Jordan Ann, Connor and Jack will have sweet memories of me, their Gammy. When they come to my house I may open a can of Campbell's tomato soup, but it will be the good time they had here at Gammy's that they remember when they are grown.

ReplyDeletewish we had some vegetable soup tonight!
I can remember eating chicken noodle soup at my grandmother's when she would keep me when I was sick. Although it was Campbell's soup, it always tasted better at her house than anywhere else!
