Thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays for so many reasons, not only because I’m so grateful for my family and friends but come on… THE FOOD!

I cooked a 16-pound turkey for us the weekend after Thanksgiving since we spent the holiday with friends and my favorite part is all the leftover turkey.

This soup is so easy to make and can be made on the stove or in your crockpot.

Let’s get started!

#ad Last year‘s backyard project was one of my fav #ad Last year‘s backyard project was one of my favorite outdoor projects, but the only thing that was missing was the space around my greenhouse, which was lacking appeal. You all know that I live in the middle of nowhere so getting material to me is quite difficult, but I was able to order everything for this project online through @truevalue. From the weed barrier, to the rubber mulch, wood sealer, and this cute bench, this project took me an afternoon to complete and it looks so much better! If you haven’t yet checked out true value for all of your outdoor needs, they have so much to offer, especially online! #TrueValuePartner
