More Piecing

Not a lot to report today; still doggedly piecing fabric squares together.  The mess is actually starting to look like a nice quilt, though.  Being able to see the fabric sewn together without cardboard showing through the cracks makes it look a lot nicer.  I'm probably 60% done with the quilt top.  And I got a few rows of daughter's scarf knitted after dinner.

However, I do want to rave about this recipe: Delicious Ham and Potato Soup.  5,883 five star reviews can't be wrong, and they certainly weren't!  We had this for dinner tonight and I had seconds.  I usually don't have seconds when we have soup for dinner, but this one was that good.  We bought a giant ham when they were on sale a few weeks ago, and DH cut it up into steaks, lunchmeat, and soup meat.  He found this recipe to use up some of the soup meat and did I mention it was good?  We did use only a little more than half the pepper called for, and threw in a couple carrots since I'm not interested in celery.  Best. Potato. Soup. Ever.   And really easy.

Tomorrow:  Continue sewing.  Cut setting triangles.  Lunch out with a mommy friend and her adorable little boy.  And free pie.  Wooooohoo!
