Hello friends!

Well winter came back in full force this morning - blowing snow, frigid temperatures and wind chills.  Welcome to our winter here in Canada!  Last week it was sunny and the snow was melting.  Crazy country.  But cold weather is the perfect time to hunker down and make some soul food, so today I'm sharing a warm-up-your-soul kind of meal!

I stumbled upon this recipe a few weeks ago in my bursting-at-the-seams-recipe binder, and decided to make it for lunch for the kids one snowy afternoon.  On a side note...don't you just love old school recipe boxes...they're chock full of family favourites.  I spend so much time on the internet looking at recipes I almost forgot how much I loved my actual paper recipe book.  A few years ago (pre-blog days) my recipe binder was the only way I stored my recipes, now I store them here on my blog.  It felt nice to flip through some actual paper...I realized at that moment that I hadn't done that in a while...which then made me realize that this simple act of looking through my book was an act of simplification which was my New Years  goal.  I've been so rushed over the last few months that I never took the time to just look for a recipe because I wanted to.  Make something because I wanted to do, not because of a deadline.  Novel idea huh?  ;)  Simplification feels good.

Anyway, I'm happy to be sharing this recipe with you here today! This Creamy Corn Bisque is a simple and fresh soup that you can have on your table in under 1 hour.  Serve it up with some crusty bread and a salad and you've got dinner made.

Come on over for this delicious and fresh recipe!   xoxo
