Chicken Noodle Soup- Mmm, Mmm Good!

I have wanted to join Making it Count (formerly Pinning it Down) again to share some of my favorite internet finds, but life has been crazy lately. This soup has made an appearance in a weekly wrap-up, but I am featuring this most recent batch just so I can participate! 



All said and done, this recipe makes enough for my family to have dinner, to give a meal to each of the my three daughters' families (their kiddos are pretty little still), and to have leftovers once or twice- depending on how many are at home eating. 

I asked my son-in-law if he was interested in a batch again this time- without hesitation he replied, via text message, "yes, please!".

                                          

Pretty much this is just chicken, carrots, celery, onion, parsley, and celery salt. In addition to the original recipe, we added some ginger on the recommendation of our favorite produce grocer, and put in some boxed broth (no MSG) to make the taste a bit stronger. 

Visit He Adopted Me First blog to get the details. You won't be sorry! :) 

                                                   

Every 2nd and 4th Tuesday, Pam and Sarah are co-hosting the Making it Count Tuesday link-up. Start with any one of those fabulous ideas you've found online. Then, do it. Make it. Cook it. Create it. Take it from the screen, give it life and let it bless your world. When you're done, snap a photo, write about it and share it with us.

    Hi, I got your link from the Making It Count post. (I did the mom/daughter journal.) This soup looks so delicious! I always loved my mom's chicken soup. I don't know why I don't make it more often. I think I'll give this recipe a try next week. Thanks for sharing!

    What a yummy recommendation! Why have I not thought of soup for the summer? I always hate using the oven to heat up the house when it's so hot so this would help that problem! I'm headed over to your recommended blog next. Hope you are enjoying the rest of your summer...going way too fast!

Our Morning Time

Look at me writing 2 posts so close together!! So... I have loved listening to the podcasts on morning time called "Your Morning Basket". I have listened to all of them. Very inspiring! They are all worthwhile to listen to, but I have to tell you that episode #2 with Andrew Pudewa is a game changer (in the homeschool sense). We have had our own variations on morning time in our house. When my girls were younger (they are now 31, 30, 28 and 22 years old), we had "seat work time" and "couch time". I'd say that couch time was our version of what is now being called morning time. For the most part, we read historical fiction, discussed history (I would either read from or discuss from a text), learned a little geography, read the bible, had prayer time, and had some pretty fun discussions. There was a transition when my now 28 year old became sort of a teachers helper for her younger sister. I remember working on art appreciation with her at the h...

Week in Review: February 1-5 2016

Lots of baby care around here as the boys' big sister (our second daughter, Jessica) was having her fifth baby. It was a week full of sword fighting, cuddles, disney movies, books, and coloring. It's also been a week full of colds. The 2 year old twins had a cold, which I assume James caught from them (although every one in the world seems to have it, so not necessarily). The problem is that no matter how many times I caution the boys, who can resist cuddling with a sweet little toddler who does not feel well? I guess germs are meant to be shared. In the way of school, we have been in "keep up" mode. Paul's strongest focus is on his Dave Ramsey finance class (which I highly recommend), his Spanish class, and his economics course. http://www.daveramsey.com/store/search.ep?keyWords=homeschool http://www.livinglanguage.com/languagelab/spanish  (I cannot recommend this highly enough. The books and cds make it easy to open and go. Additionally, the...

Din-spiration Part 6

This is sort of a lighthearted post, but I am going to start by saying that all those in Paris and the World are in my prayers. There are never words when something so unspeakable happens. As it has been pointed out, it happens far more often that we usually hear about in places that are more obscure to most of us. I'm going to continue with this planned post as most of us still have "normal life" to attend to and families to feed amidst this very stressful backdrop. To keep myself accountable, I was going to keep up posting about my crusade to eat at home. I have failed the last few weeks, but the resolve to eat at home has not! The great thing is that on the days when resolve wanes in me, my husband picks it up. He is often the one to encourage me that he can stop by and pick up an ingredient I forgot, or to step in and create a dish himself. He chose make us a Lasagna last week- for me, that is a more involved dinner than I will take on a week day. Rather than...
