The weather the last couple of days has not been kind to us. Just as you are about to leave home for work or leave the office in the evening, and the weather changes, the skies open up and down comes the rain.
Over the weekend, I got caught in the rain. By the time I was getting home, I was drenched, recipe for a runny nose the following day.
I asked my daughters to make me some soup and they made me this amazing cabbage soup.
Cabbage is never on my list of vegetables to eat, but after finishing my bowl of soup, I changed my mind.
