I know this one is regarded as easier than the Spring one but why can't we just decide on one or the other and leave it all year round!<br />I hope Far Guy can shake whatever the bug is that he's caught.

My daughter went to the butcher and got some bones to make a bone broth...hoping it would help us feel better last week. I don't know if it really does, but the soup was delicious :)<br /><br />Continued prayers for Far Guy.

It doesn't seem to matter which direction the time goes it still takes time to adjust to the change. Your soup sounds perfect for a winter day. I tried a new recipe for lentil soup yesterday but it will probably not be made again. You win some you lose some! Do you make your own flat bread? I love it but I've never made it.<br />I sure hope Far Guy feels better soon.

Your beef soup sounds like just what the doctor ordered though. Have you tried a humidifier in the bedroom? That always seems to work for us. Yes, it does make the air "wet" but it stops those coughs in their tracks. I hate the time change too. I don't like people messing with the time. Just doesn't seem right.
