I’ll work in my field for a while, save up some money, and get this started. I’ve written at least 50 pages in my journal about recipes, ideas for the set up of the place, sandwiches, fresh bread, desserts… the entire concept is real in my mind. Soup is the perfect food for gathering people and feeling like home. Nothing is more satisfying and hearty. Yesh!

He’s the cute kid on the Peanuts comic strip who carried the blue blanket around and was supa-smart. I had a wee crush on him when I was 4. He is the perfect match of maturity and intelligence and child-like wonder and exuberance.
