Husband is at it again for this installment of One Local Summer. It was more like a One Local Fall sort of day – gloomy and rainy – so soup it is! The soup is a chunky potato leek soup since we happened to have all those things on hand and husband is truly the soup master. He somehow manages to make everything work well together in one pot whereas I tend to make disasters that skirt the line between edible and fodder for the garbage disposal. We used up the last of the pretzel rolls from the freezer and paired the roll with some mustard seed gouda made from local milk. Top the whole meal off with a glass of cool cider and we have a filling and warm dinner for an icky day. This may be the last of the meals for 2015 seeing as there was a vacation happening during the time the last three OLS posts went up, but fear not, we’ll be back next year!
