Feed a Child, Nourish a Mind & South of France Tomato Soup

February 11, 2014 Maria Stuart 8 Comments

Every school day morning I stand in my chilly kitchen, sometimes pre-dawn, and make my kids breakfast and while they eat that, lunch. The elementary school starts at 8:00 and its about 7:30 when my ten-year old climbs up on the stool and sits down to her warm breakfast. It’s about that time too, that […]
