I love to get up early [not too early] on Saturday mornings, especially in the fall and winter months, and put on a pot of something to slowly simmer as we watch the Tide Roll. Whether it is soup, stew or chili, it really is nice to sit down on weekend evenings and enjoy a great bowl of food, some bread, football, family and friends.
My favorite soup to eat on a cool day is chicken and dumplings (does that count as a soup?) I eat it like a soup, anyway. It spells "comfort" to me.
