For once in my life I followed the recipe almost exactly.  I found the recipe through Cheap Healthy Good; here is the original recipe.  Here is what I did:

Back in Pittsburgh, I worked in this sandwich shop.  It was a pretty popular sandwich shop, and every day we made three soups: creamy tomato basil, vegan chili, and white turkey chili.  These soups were delicious.  I still crave these soups.  Unfortunately, the owners were kind of dicks, so I left after a year, and [...]

I love Bakerella’s site. Love love love it.  She has so much patience and creativity, and she creates the most deliciously decadent cookies.
I also love s’mores.  And ever since I convinced Husband to use the fireplace, and we had our first successful fire, I have been craving them.
