I just love fall and all that goes with it. The cool crisp air, the colors, the smells, the activities.....EVERYTHING! But I think what I love the most about the cool weather seasons is the food....soup in particular. : ) The crockpots come out in full force and the aroma of my house during the day while dinner is cooking itself is AMAZING! I have been making this soup for two years now and everyone that eats it LOVES it and doesn't go away hungry. I normally make it in on the stove, but today I used my best friend (my crock-pot) to make it!
