Cheese Tortellini Vegetable Soup

February 26, 2010 0 comments

It’s yet another cold and snowy day here in Western Pennsylvania. The perfect night for a belly warming bowl of homemade soup. Last night I gave another recipe from Cooking Light’s Fresh Food Fast a try. I had never thought of putting tortellini in vegetable soup but thought it sounded like a good idea. Boy was I right!

Am I Really A Housewife?

February 25, 2010 2 comments

Is a housewife the same thing as a homemaker? What if you have a job? Does this make you any less of a wonderful and committed mother?
