Monday's Productivity

Ham &Vegetable Soup

Today was a productive day.  I went to the office, in the morning.  During my morning break, I went to the bank to do a transaction.  Later, during my lunch break, I went to the library to return one book, renew another and borrow one more.  Then, during my afternoon break, I went to the pharmacy to pick up a medication refill.

It was a sunny day in downtown, but it had rained in the area around my house and the intersections were flooded on my commute home, in the evening.  The rain is a blessing and it meant I didn't have to water the garden, today.

I took the trash can, yard waste bin and recycling bin to the curb for trash pick up, tomorrow.

Later, I made a pot of ham and vegetable soup.  I had a ham bone in the freezer (leftover from daughter's graduation party, last summer) and I added 3 sliced carrots, 1/2 diced yellow onion, some leftover cooked green beans and green bell pepper from the freezer, half a tomato diced, 3 diced potatoes, a few whole pepper corns, added water and boiled everything for 30 mins. or so.  I added a little salt to taste at the end.  I had a bowl of soup for my dinner, tonight and there are at least 3 more servings left, if not more.

Anyone else save leftover bits of vegetables, etc., in the freezer, for making soups?
