Oops! I posted today's plans on Sundays.  I would love to know what you put in your vegetable soup.  I miss soup and stew and have been thinking about making one.  

When I was making veggie beef soup as a newbie I would leave out the potatoes but basically its chuck roast, carrots, celery, baby lima beans, okra, tomatoes, V8 juice.

That sounds yummy!

6", 9", 12". How much snow will we get? Enough for me to make the official call to close the office, I hope.

Hello,

I wonder if you could tell me how you make your protein coffee? I have tried and it was a disaster, went all clumpy and tasted awful.

Cheers

Here's mine:

Brew a pot of your favorite coffee or chai tea
In a 20 ounce blender bottle with wire ball add 3 oz of heavy whipping cream, 3 oz of cool water, a dash of cinnamon, a packet or two of Truvia or other sweetener, and one heaping scoop of vanilla whey protein isolate powder such as Syntrax Nectar vanilla bean torte. 
Cover and shake for 5 seconds to blend.
Top off the blender bottle with hot brewed coffee or chai tea.
Cover and tilt gently to mix.  (Don't shake a hot beverage vigorously--it can explode) 

Always add hot liquid on top of cool protein slurry to keep it from cooking and clumping.

We've only gotten a couple inches out here. It seems it was snowing all around us but not right here. Let me know how much you got up there.

Happy Monday everyone.
