The Bard said it best in his play "Twelfth Night"
"If music be the food of love, play on"
Let's skew his meaning a bit and see just where the love of food and the love of music takes us.

Oh No, Just 43 Weeks Till Christmas
I am becoming less and less enthused about prepping for Christmas next year, when everything in me is excited about spring.
I did find a cute door decoration that was a nutcracker printed on canvas made to hang from a doorknob. I was not about to pay 10 bucks for a printed piece of canvas, no matter how cute it was. However, I saved the photo of it, have some balsa wood around the house, and decided to try my hand at painting my own. Heaven knows, I have a multitude of door knobs in this house and at least 3 or 4 of them could stand a little Christmas cheer.
I also added a few recipes to my Christmas cookbook. I have found Google knows no end to a search simply titled Christmas. There seems to be no limit to the number of rabbit holes I can disappear in, which is fun but time consuming. With that time, though I have found a plethora of recipes and traditions I had never seen before.
Now I have to be on the lookout for lomaconi to use making a traditional Spanish Christmas soup. I was thinking that our entertaining plans for the next holiday season needs to include having close friends over for a simple soup dinner, with three or four different soup choices. Might as well try soups from different parts of the globe, but I will want to try them first.
Did I even set foot in the room that is covered in Christmas and other holiday stuff? Nope not at all.
Your soup idea sounds interesting, though neither of my adult children likes soup...I do! I did buy my first Christmas gift when I was in Arizona - actually two, as the purse is for my daughter from me, and the wallet will be a gift from her son. :)
Hey y'all thanks for leaving a comment. They are much appreciated. I read them all and do my best to respond to them, except for trolls, spam, and AI. I delete those suckers forever.

It is never too early to do Christmas shopping!
