'What would you like for dinner? At our house, soup is often the answer. After a few days of excess — a series of dinner guests or one too many restaurant forays — it feels like a clean, quiet choice. In every season, soup can be just right.
Some vegetable soups are complex and long simmered, but that’s not what you want in the middle of July. This light, brothy take brims with full-flavored summer vegetables for a colorful minestrone that can be put together in a mere half-hour or so.
If you don’t have a vegetable garden — or access to a friend’s bounty — it’s worth going to the farmers’ market for the freshest, sweetest produce, because this soup is all about vegetables.'>>>

summer heat. Fifty-two weeks of the year.
She got the chickens from a poultry market. Always the feet needed to be included. For flavor.
We lived in her three family house, on the third floor. When it was warmer weather, we'd leave our hall door open, the hall connecting to her place on the second floor. We knew when she gave soup to the grandfather [Pop] bc he doused it with a generous amount of black pepper and then would go into repeated sneezing. 😄
I think I read/heard somewhere that you should eat hot soup even in the hot summer bc it does something beneficial?
Missing them good ole days.😔
