Tortellini Soup {and an awesome iTunes playlist}

Ernest Hemingway Spring Quote WM

The Littles are wishing the rain away in Austin. Me? I’m cozy and content with the unseasonably cold, wet spring. It’s a perfect Thursday morning to continue my spring cleaning, make a new playlist for our trip to Ireland, and simmer a big pot of a favorite soup on the stove. I made this soup all winter and the Littles triple heart love it. I double this recipe so it makes a big pot because the leftovers serve double duty as a yummy sauce to top spaghetti. {The Littles tend to eat up all the yummy tortellini, so leftovers double duty, the pasta doesn’t!}

Two meals in one? Yes, please.

While the soup’s simmering, I’m having fun creating a new playlist full of fresh tunes. Y’all I was in serious need of an update. Here are a few new to me favorites:

Beautiful Day by Joshua Radin

Hero by Family of the Year

You Never Need Nobody by The Lone Bellow

Cannons by Phil Wickham

Home by Phillip Phillips

Between the Raindrops by Lifehouse

How sweet is that list?!?! Crank up the tunes, make some soup, and in the words of Papa Hemingway, “decide where to be happiest.”

A delicious, hearty soup that has become a favorite at our home! Doubles easy to take to a friend or serve a crowd. Leftovers make a fabulous sauce for spaghetti.

Meet Kristin

Welcome! I'm so glad you're here.

I'm on a mission to love my neighbors. I put an ordinary picnic table in my front yard, painted it turquoise and invited neighbors, friends, and even strangers to hang out and do life together at the Turquoise Table®.

I hope you'll join us!
