Is there anything better on a cold winter's night than a hot bowl of soup, warm bread, and a bottle of wine? I think not. So to start off the weekend, this post features recipes, soup tools & warm hugs.

This recipe had me at the word "chowder." You know it is going to be chunky and filling. The sweet and touch of heat in this soup sounds perfectly balanced.

Seafood Bisque

This recipe comes straight from Louisiana. It features just what a Cajun stew should have ~ crawfish, shrimp, crab, and old bay seasoning. What a treat for any seafood lover!

The Modern Proper

Split Pea Soup With Smoked Ham Hock

The recipe author strongly feels it is necessary to cook this soup with a smoked ham hock. Sounds delish, but I wouldn't know a ham hock if I saw one. Ask your butcher.
