Carrot Almond Soup (no show this week!)

Hi friends! Bad news. We don’t have a new show for you this week. Joy tweaked her back and so we weren’t able to record a new episode for you this week. Instead, I’m sharing a recipe for Carrot Almond Soup that is one of my favorites for fall.

We’ll be back next week with something tasty for your ears!
