I made a chicken, leek and barley soup in a slow cooker a few days ago which turned out really good. My younger DD, who holds an unofficial title of the household Queen of Stoups (sews and soups) is now feeling an urge to one up me. She’s starting by making her own bone broth and I have no idea what the end product is going to be but the smell has been making me salivate for the last two hours.
To prevent compulsive snacking I run to the basement where I’m happily playing with convergence and “stack and whack” (or is it stack and slash?) piecing methods.
The final product will be turned into charity quilts for preemies.
