For busy-day cooking, or spur-of-the-moment simple satisfying suppers, fried rice is my go-to good-food-fast solution. For me, fried rice is as easy as making a sandwich!

Creamy Winter Greens Soup from The Fearrington House Cookbook

I felt it more due to heading out wearing my lightweight jacket and scarf this morning; which have been the way to go since the big snow melted away a few days ago. Either way, true wintry ...
