Happy Thursday, friends!

How is everyone adjusting to being back in the real world?

  • The holidays are over.
  • Work/school/commitments/activities have all started again.
  • It’s still cold.

I don’t know about you, but when all of the above things 👆 are happening, I need something to look forward to at the end of the night.

And by that, I mean, I need a really solid dinner to look forward to. 😉

When it’s cold and dark by 4:00 PM, I crave something warm, filling, hearty, and cozy.

Enter: Idahoan Premium Steakhouse Creamy Potato Soup paired with my favorite Wedge Salad Recipe.

Because what’s more comforting or classic than a really great soup and salad for dinner?

    That is amazing, I was just going to ask if you had a good crouton recipe! But I have to pass on the blue cheese. I just can’t get past the smell. Or the taste either…
