Sometimes the simplest things work the best. Point in case our supper tonight was a simple hot tomato basil soup with crackers. It warms you up, which we both need as it is going to drop to 9 degrees overnight . Brrrrrrr!

You need a bath in hot tomato soup!!
Funny… I just reminded myself of saying, on a hot day, I wanted to sit in a tub of soft serve ice cream. Everyone looked at me like I was crazy. I still think it sounds great!

Both the ice cream and soup baths are interesting ideas! LOL…maybe AC and blankets would not be as much fun…

I am curious about Passport America. Do you use them? When we were on the road it was sometimes difficult to find places to allow a stay for more than one night.
LikeLiked by 2 people
Yes, we have used Passport America for the last 5 years. There are as you observed there are limitations. Most that we have used allow at least 2 nights, but often not on Friday or Saturdays. Usually never on holiday weekends either. However, we use it for example when we’re going a long distance, e.g. Indiana to south Texas. Most 1/2 price PA rates are about $20, most $15 – $17. We have found some that are unlimited, but they are few and far between. Using PA for 2 or 3 nights will pay for your yearly membership. We’ll be glad to share more details if you’d like.

We did use them from both sides of the aisle. When we were workampers and when we were traveling. It is great to get a discount when traveling and not so great to tell campers that we don’t take them when working as hosts.

Your soup (this post) was made a few weeks ago. I’ve just made a pot of leek and potato soup (my comfort food) although it’s now 20 degrees – a jump from 14 yesterday – but I’d planned it so I made it. I can eat soup at any time though, and with home made bread it’s an easily prepared meal for a singledon like me..
