Hello! Isn’t summer just sneaking up on us? All of a sudden, my ghostly pale legs are coming out of hiding and I’m seeing strawberries at the farmer’s market. We’re in that sweet early June phase when the mornings are still cool and the days are on the verge of getting hot, soon to be…

Sheet-Pan Carrot, Apple + Ginger Soup
Yes, it’s almost May, and I’m still sharing soup! I’m a big soup person — truthfully, I could have it every day, no matter what the weather is.
