Homemade Vegetable Soup

Well I guess the first winter storm of the season has arrived, so I decided to make a pot of homemade vegetable soup. When you live in the midwest and have to deal with the wind, freezing rain, and snow there is not much to do, your pretty much stuck at home. One way my family tolerates this weather is to pitch in and we all make our favorite homemade soup. We let it simmer on the stove most of the day. It makes the house smell so good and helps it to feel warm and cozy. We usually over indulge, but thats okay as it's a pretty healthy soup. I think I'll go now and enjoy my soup.
