Last Christmas was a weird experience in itself. First of all, as a college student you get a longer Christmas break because you finish exams early....
This is the best soup ever!!! It is also one of the easiest, too!! I Make a whole bunch of little meatballs up in advance and freeze them, so whenever I want to make the soup just defrost some meatballs!! Thank you for such a great recipe!!! Lisa
