My sister’s Christmas
card this year included a recipe for Hot Toddies. Sean and I always love a good
cocktail so Hot Toddies it was for cocktail hour. It also inspired a warm
winter dinner. The refrigerator is almost completely empty after Thanksgiving
and not quite time to buy for Christmas yet. This soup is a product of what was
in the house and the desire for something warm.
It is rare that we get
rainy days in Hawaii where it is pouring all day and the temperature stays in
the low 70s. Today was one of those days. Living in Hawaii makes you appreciate
rainy days in a new way. When the sun is shining it’s hard to stay inside and
clean, cook or organize your gadget drawer. (I know we’ve got it so hard don’t
we...)
