Pot of goodness
food, veggies all local – turkey raised by my uncle, cooked by my momma. I made the soup from scratch, bones and all. Used garlic, onion and spices as a base with water and a bit of oil. Added large stalks of celery from my soup stalk and chopped celery as well. Cauliflower, carrots, yellow and green beans, parsnip… darn no room for rice.
