Abundance and Beauty Reign

Abundance reigns, beauty as well! With so much fruit and produce available now, I have so many choices to pick from to write about.

I got to thinking about another time in my life and the most wonderful tomato soup I have ever had before or since. I was at a meeting with four others at the home of good friends who were not doing well, job-wise that is; doing fine every other way. They grew their own food and tomatoes had just come in—bushels of them. They made this soup for all of us that day and it was truly memorable for its delicious taste and simplicity.
