Tortilla Soup!?

I hate soup. I really do. I really only Wor Wonton Soup and Egg Drop Soup. Sometimes, I'll find something I like, but than not really like it more than once or twice.

I love this tortilla soup from Food on the Food.

I made it last night, and it's a hit. Even with my Step Dad who really isn't a soup person either. Wow.

I did make a couple of changes simply because I really don't like a lot of cilantro so I cut it by more than half. That worked best for us. An extra can of tomatoes and also some water because I didn't have enough chicken stock. Believe me I was trying to figure out how the hell I did that.

This was fast-ish. I totally plan on making more next week to stick in the fridge. That would make my day.

Wait! I Post You Say!?

So I am posting. I now have camera batteries, no man around to make my life miserable and my kids are in the swing of things.

Basically I had a huge upheaval in my life. A move, both of my little kids starting school, a separation, and a very strange not really a relationship (that I know of. Ha).

I'm ready to get back into the swing of things.

To the extent that I am now making my famous brownies. Which will be made more famous in about a month. IT'S TOP SECRET! *Shhhhh!*
