Cozy Dinners: Chicken Pot Pie Soup

With some potential snow arriving in New England a little later on this week, it is officially “Soup Season” by my calculations – and I thought I’d share one of my longtime favorite recipes to whip up when that chill in the air (or the mood!) hits just right.

Welcome Great Pumpkin…

It comes as no surprise that I love any and all things Fall and Halloween, and that I am truly living my best life this time of year. I’ve been a full-blown Autumnal girly since I was a little kid, and I don’t think I’m showing any signs of slowing down with my obsessions and […]
