The weather has been so strange in Toronto. Today there is a heat warning and it’s October! I actually found a bee in my house the other day, so I guess everyone is confused about what season we are in.

Last night, even though I was sitting with the air conditioning on, I was craving a veggie cream soup. Going through products I had in the freezer, I came upon my Pardes Winter Blend vegetables. It comes in a 12-ounce bag, which is enough for a recipe without any leftovers getting freezer burn in my freezer. Really easy to make, too. I didn’t have a hand blender (so mine turned a bit chunky with my potato masher alone), but it still was awesome.
