Re: (...)
Ok Now that I have purchased some small glasses to have a soup shooter for Thanksgiving
What kind of Soup - I found a savory recipe for Pumpkin Sage Ragluch
cookie - and wondered if I should still have a Pumpkin/ Squash soup
or a new one - a Tomato - Blue Cheese soup?
Any suggestions? Thanks
