My husband teases me because I like to eat ice cream in the winter.
He also thinks I’m strange for craving soup in the summer.
But our marriage is still intact because we’ve found a summer appropriate soup that my husband approves of.
In fact, we all gobble it up. Even my kids, the pickiest children on the planet (how I got all three of them, I’ll never know!) devour this stuff and ask for seconds. And every busy mom’s dream; it is in fact a slow cooker soup! WIN!
