Tomato, Basil and Cheddar Soup - The Peach Kitchen

What if I schedule a soup monday instead of meatless mondays?

This doesn?t require some serious thinking on my side because as you all know? I love soup! I love soup in all it?s form ? chunky, thick, creamy, clear, vegetable, seafood, pork, chicken..state as many you can think of. I probably love them all.

Another reason is that Soups are great for hangovers. No, I didn?t drink myself to sleep last night. I?m talking about pure weekend hangover?. hard to accept that it?s monday. Here?s the top six reasons why mondays are hard??

  • 2,675 e-mails??. seriously?
  • the sun is shining on a monday?we were supposed to go on a picnic yesterday and it was raining cats and dogs..
  • it?s harder to wake up Ykaie on a monday?.there?s more tickling involved?
  • I?m always sleepy on a monday
  • One word: LAUNDRY
  • 2,675 e-mails?{I maybe exaggerating but it feels like there is}

Since that?s the case? I think it?s just right day to go easy on yourself?..

? take time to laugh

? eat an ice cream or better yet, go on an ice cream date

? watch Batman {The Dark Knight Rises} with the largest bucket of buttery popcorn in hand

? find things that make you happy

? play with kids and unleash your silly self

? bake a pie

? make soup

? SMILE? monday is a good day.

I hope you?re having a great monday?.
