Browning up the Italian sausage.

Using my homemade chicken stock with this soup!


Great aroma in the house!


Man it was good! Also made some homemade bruschetta and a garden salad. Had some neighbors over to use as guinea pigs. They liked it too!


Made this for my Honey hanging in the kitchen. Use it for grocery lists, notes, and whatever. She saw a picture and asked if i could build her one.
Ended the evening with our friends by the fire.
