Horse barn
Another Christmas!!! Already!!! What makes them come so fast? We are scurrying around at the barn trying to get it all decorated nice and pretty. I just love those new LED lights. They are so bright and use so little power.... we can leave then on all night. It is a little tricky to get photos, though. I'll try to get a photo of the 'new' chicken coop we built this year (yea!!)... and decorated for the season.
I've finally perfected a tomato soup made from scratch. I love it so much, if there is any left from supper I warm it up and have it for breakfast. yum!!!
Creamy Tomato Soup
4 Tblspoon Olive Oil
2 Lrg Onions
