Though we're halfway through February the weather in Central Ohio continues to behave as if we've just plunged into the deep end of January. Here in Columbus the snow is blowing in the air and after an early-morning high of 22 degrees the temperature will begin a slow descent until it reaches the one-digits by Saturday. Ugh. Double ugh. However one thing I've learned is that kvetching about the weather won't make it warm up any faster. If it did, believe me, my own efforts alone would be sufficient to have already ushered in the pre-spring thaw. But alas, my non-stop griping about the cold weather seems to falling upon deaf cosmic ears. Or maybe all my meteorologic whining is actually bringing about bad weather Karma that's keeping the temperatures in the area around me in the frigid zone. In any case, the thought occurred to me that maybe I should just make myself a fire, a cup of hot water with lemon, and a pot of soup and shut up about being cold. So That's what I've been doing. Last Sunday I tried a soup recipe that I got from my daughter Maria, ...who lives in Los Angeles where the temperature is currently 82 degrees. But as it's we here in the heartland along with our East Coast brethren who are currently in need of a little internal warmth, I'll share the recipe for this delectatious but quick-to-make soup in hopes that it will help when the cold wind doth blow. Which it continually doth.

Patti, this soup looks really good. I have to make some. It reminds me of the soups my Italian grandmother use to make.

You know, Jean, I'll bet this recipe somewhere back originally came from someone's Italian grandmother.
