Way back in the hot, summer month of June 2007, Simple Daily Recipes was born. In the early months of development, there were no readers. Just me, writing to myself about what simple recipes I fed my family the night before. Those were the lonely days. Back then, Facebook was a "What Book?" and Twitter didn't exist. Socializing with other food bloggers and exploring new recipes meant hunting... More...

This Creamy Carrot Soup is a completely different experience from the Curried Carrot and Apple Soup I cooked up last week. This Creamy Carrot Soup is satisfying much in the same way as the Homemade Creamy Tomato Soup I enjoy so much. It's simple. There's just enough potato in it to mellow that earthy carrot flavor that can be off putting at times. Even though I love carrots, I have to admit... More...

It sounds unusual and it's different from our normal soups, but Curried Carrot and Apple Soup is quite delicious. After you know what to expect. The First Bowl Because it looks so much like butternut squash, it took six bites or spoonfuls before my brain accepted that I was eating carrots.

I completely support and promote those folks growing their own foods and looking for places to market their tasty harvests. It is far more gratifying to go out of my way to buy locally grown meats and produce than to make a quick trip to the grocer for sub-par foods grown halfway around the world. That's solely my opinion and it's why I'm happy to promote another source for locally grown foods. Maureen... More...
