  4. I love your comforting kids friend recipe ideas. I always seem to have the grandkids when they are sick and never know of anything to give them to eat to soothe them.

  9. Ha, ha, ha… that snowman soup cracks me up. Just the other day my Little Man was talking about soups he likes and he has a thing for just plain ol’ broth. HA! so weird

  10. When someone in my home is sick I like making homemade chicken & noodle soup. It makes the house smell yummy, opens our sinuses and just makes you feel better.

    1. I’ve had a darn cough and runny nose for 4 weeks now!! At least it’s not making me feel exhausted, but sick parents is no fun!!

  18. Homemade applesauce is always a hit with my two. Add in some mac & cheese and they’re in heaven!
