I would highly recommend

I've been meaning to share some links for a while now, and Katy's post encouraged me to go through with my plans. These are recipes I've tried since I've started to feel like a human being again after being pregnant and having a baby. They're keepers!

Chicken Spaghetti Casserole
Bacon Spinach Salad
Apricot Glazed Porkchops
Chicken Pot Pie

They're all pretty easy, too. Enjoy!

Pumpkin Curry Soup

Because no one has been posting (including me) and this blog is so sad, plus I had the most amazing soup this last week, I'm going to share. I call this soup Happy Soup. That's because I'm so happy when I'm eating it. Call it a natural antidepressant. Call it comfort food. Call it whatever you want to, it's good. And even better: it's so easy! Make it tonight, and your family will wonder where that scowling, crusty, nagging old woman went and where this beautiful, smiling, happy person came from.

Here it is. In all its beauty.

First you need a medium yellow onion and 4 cloves garlic. Chop 'em up. Then saute them in 2 Tbsp butter until onions are clear.

Add3 tsp curry powder and 1/2 tsp salt and cook for 2 mins.

Now add:
3 cups chicken broth
15 oz pumpkin (one of the small cans)

Simmer for 10 mins.

Add one can of evaporated milk. Then, working in small batches, puree the soup in a blender. Pureeing makes it...indescribable. Frothy. Smooth. Divine.

Now eat it and love it.
