Some years back I did not eat broccoli at all and now I’m eating it at least once per week 😉 Very good! Great soup!

Years ago I lost 72# by eating a bunch for lunch everyday. My family hated me because of the smell in the house when it cooked. The nurses at my doctors office said they wanted my blood because it was so healthy! I swear it is a miracle vegetable…lol

Hahaha thank you Joni. My first one. For Christmas I want a stand that will hold my iPad. As you can see trying to record, find the spoon and stir didn’t make for a great video!

I like cream of broccoli soup – broccoli is good for you, lots of calcium in it – surprising about that, but it is so.

I don’t think there is a soup I don’t like. My mom made split pea soup when I was a kid. I completely forgot about it. Thank you Mike.
