Ahh homemade bread day. As I wandered around the store today, I got a whiff of the bread coming from the deli/bakery and though..OHH I need to go home and make some bread...but honestly..two things, One the day was so busy for me..I knew I wouldn't have time and two: Not feeling up to par, I'd hate to get started with it an then give up on it...so what did I DO?? I opted for buying one of the loaves from the bakery..fresh! Works when it's necessary..and one never knows, I may feel up to making some homemade bread tomorrow anyway. Since I have to get up tomorrow and do some major catch up cleaning for being away all day today!
Now, when it comes to soup, my all time fav is still,...Chicken and homemade dumplins (either fat drop dumplins or homemad noodle dumplins) I'll opt for homemade chicken and 'store bought' noodles when all else fails.
I've never tried to make a clam chowder, but I LOVE clam chowder.

I also like a good 'french onion soup'..homemade of course!
