One of my very best friends (Derek) shared this recipe with me.  I will be making it this weekend in fact.  I am sure that it will warm you up to the core on those cold fall nights.  This is the second  recipe I got from him.  The first is for a cheese cake that I have perfected, if I may say so myself.  I am sure that Derek won’t agree, but everyone is entitled to their own opinion, even if it is wrong…LOL.

  1. This has got to be the most delicious-looking soup I’ve seen in a long time. My Crock Pot will get a severe workout this winter if I make everything I see and want.
