Soup Weather

Lately I have been in the kitchen throwing together lots of soups sans recipe. It is super satisfying and feels very old school to throw a bunch of things in a pot that results in a filling meal. When adding ingredients that I am not so confident using, I just add them in small quantities as to not spoil the bunch if I don't like where it's going. This one I made last night is a little fiesta chicken soup with corn, Monterey jack, rice, plently of spices and some cilantro and avocado on top.

If you clicked the photo to enlarge it and could actually see the texture on the ground pepper that is because Holly got a brand new Canon Powershot S90 for Christmas (!!!!!). Oh yes, I love it. {Thanks babe}
