 It's Shop Small Saturday!
While I'm not a fan of "Black Friday" at all! I absolutely LOVE Small Business Saturday! Heading out to some of our favorite South Saint Louis Small Businesses this Saturday morning! Hope to see you there!  There are so many amazing makers and artists here in South St. Louis. Please check them out. Give them your business. You will not be disappointed, and you will be helping out a neighbor and making a new friend!
 It's a busy week here in the Carondelet Kitchen with Thanksgiving prep well underway. We are heading out for some last-minute shopping and a few specialty items before the big day. From the Big Guy and Dr. B we wish you the best Thanksgiving ever! We know we have a lot to be thankful for this year!
 Big Guy and I are always on the lookout for interesting cookbooks. We love to scour bookstores for old ones, but we also like to add new books to our collection. I flipped through the pages and was instantly inspired to start cooking when I read through my copy of Something from Nothing by @alisonroman. I started marking pages of the recipes I wanted to try immediately. The first recipe I tried was the Golden Mushroom Soup with Orzo and a Pat of Butter. Alison suggested it was a great soup to make ahead of time and I wanted to have an easy supper ready to go in the refrigerator for later in the week. Easy was also the name of the game regarding making the soup. Once you sauteed the mushrooms with garlic, it was a matter of adding turmeric, red pepper flakes, soy sauce, along with beef broth, my choice, and orzo. Once I reheated the soup, Alison suggested the addition of a pat of butter with more soy sauce, salt, and pepper. It was the perfect soup for a Fall Day! |
