Fall is in the air! Well, at least it is where I live :). It's not exactly time to pull out the heavy coats and sweaters but I am loving the fact that the mornings are nice and crisp and the days are just beautiful. This type of weather always makes me want to make soup and this is the latest favorite at our house. Serve it with some nice crusty bread and a salad and you're good to go! Enjoy!
