A Yogini’s Recipes for Happiness
It’s chilly.The first snow has fallen. It was only graupel or ball snow, mixed with bone-numbing rain, but hey, the psychological effects were significant! Thoughts turn to warm SOUP.Try this Mediterranean Mushroom, Onion, and Tomato concoction ~ it slides down easily, is wonderfully heart and soul-warming, and has lots of garlic to ward off winter colds.
