Creamy and Meaty Asparagus Soup

Creamy and Meaty Asparagus Soup


Ingredients

  • 3 pounds fresh asparagus, rinsed
  • 8 cups chicken stock
  • 1 pound ground beef (or sausage)
  • 4 slices of bacon
  • 1 cup minced onion
  • 4 potatoes
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
  •  salt & pepper
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/4 cup finely grated Parmesan
Directions

Cook ground beef and finely chopped bacon in the pan, add onion and garlic, season to taste: salt, pepper and I like to add a pinch of dill weed and oregano. Once the meat is nice and cooked and the onions are transparent, add chicken stock and chopped potatoes.

Trim the attractive top tips from the asparagus, about 1 to 1 1/2 inches in length. Cut the woody stem ends from each spear and reserve. Cut the remaining tender stalks into 1/2-inch pieces.
Add the tough woody stems, lower the heat and simmer to infuse with asparagus flavor, 20 to 30 minutes. Remove the stems with a slotted spoon and discard, by this time potatoes will be cooked thought.
Add the remaining tender stalks of asparagus (except for the tops) and add the heavy cream, cook another 20 minutes.
Than put the mass in the blender and puree the soup until smooth. Put back on the stove and add the remaining asparagus, cook for another 5 minutes.
When serving sprinkle some finely grated Parmesan.
Yum!

Qiwang Genuine Leather Luxury Style Soft Tote

Qiwang Genuine Leather Luxury Style Soft Tote








Functional and beautiful purse. This is just the purse for me, it's the perfect size: not too big or too small and it roomy and it's just gorgeous. I got mine in color brown, it's very pretty color, perfect for fall and winter and even early spring, I have boots that are just the same color, so it's a perfect match for me. All the zippers and hard wear are gold, not silver color as it shows in the listing pictures, it was a surprise but a pleasant one, since I do like gold detailing way better. It says that it's genuine leather purse, I am not a pro and can not say for sure, but it sure like looks and feels like real leather and it smells like it, nothing too offensive, on the contrary very nice, light scent of leather, love it. The purse feels nice and soft and sturdy.









As I said, the purse is pretty roomy: there are 2 main compartments, that are divided by a zipper pocket in the middle, there is also a zipper pocket and 2 slot pockets for your phone or makeup... lol This purse is well made: all the stitching is spot on, the lining on the inside is well done, good quality fabric too, so this purse is beautiful both on the outside and inside. It also comes with an adjustable and removable long shoulder strap, thought I prefer to wear it without one, it's always nice to have that option. And another plus for me, there are no logos. Overall great purse, I have gotten so many complements almost every time I wore it. It looks and feels expensive.

M2C Kid's Windproof Jacket

M2C Kid's Jacket








Awesome jacket!!! I got this jacket for my 6 year old son, so first of all let me comment on the sizing: I got the smallest one: size S in kids, my son usually wears size 6T or Small and the jacket fits him perfectly: there is still room to grow, but at the same time the jacket looks great on him, so I say these are true to size.
This is a relaxed fit jacket, looks very good on and my son says it's super comfy. I love that you kinda get 2 jackets in one and the price is awesome! So the jacket has a fleece lining: it actually can be detached (just unzip) and you get a fleece jacket which is definitely wearable on it's own: it even has functional pockets, so in my eyes you get 2 jackets in one - great value!








So you can wear the fleece jacket on its own, you can wear the windproof jacket on its own or you can wear it all together for more cold weather. You can detach the hood as well. I like that there are no buttons just zipper and velcro, it's so much easier for my 6 year old. You can adjust the sleeves. There is a small zipper pocket on the front and there are secret inside pockets on the fleece lining/jacket. Very functional, practical, comfy, and nice and warm jacket. My son looks great in it and I know he not gonna get wet and will stay warm in it! Definitely recommend!

Another cool thing they have matching jackets for adults: both men and women, so you can can get one for yourself and one for your kid! Cute idea!

Natural Soap Gift Set Review


9 Piece Natural Soap Gift Set



This soap set is pretty awesome, the soaps smell super good as soon as you open the box. Let me just say a few words on packaging: super cute. It's a beautiful gift box that has a magnet that “snaps” shut, it’s made of thick cardboard with a beautiful butterfly on the front, love the presentation, it would make a great gift for sure. 

Inside the box you’ll find 9 mini squares of soap (25 grams each). Each square is engraved with a butterfly on the face of the soap along with “Fleur D’ Extase” (meaning Flower of Ecstasy in French). 

All the soaps are different colors and therefor different scents, I would love if they had the scents listed on the box or at least on the Amazon listing... but it does say that they’re made with natural ingredients and pure plant and flower essences. The soaps are not drying my skin and they make me smell good, so these are definitely some great soaps, but again I wish we would know all the scents and ingredients... but other than that it's a great set and definitely a great little gift.

Precision Grooming Set Review


Stainless Steel Luxury Tweezers + Nail Scissor


This set is pretty awesome, you get 3 different pairs of tweezers and a pair of nail scissors, plus it's all in cool blue color. First of all let me just start by saying that it's super hard to find a good pair of tweezers... the pair of the angled tweezers in this set is super, it's just perfect for plucking my eyebrows, it gets even the smallest hairs with no problems. The pointed tweezers that came in set I personally use to pick up rhinestones when I do my nail art, and the nail scissors are great for trimming and shaping my nails. All the pieces are made out of stainless steel so you don’t have to worry about replacing these. Easy to clean as well and perfect for everyday use. Great quality and great value.
