Vegetable Soup for The Starving Time
Spring, in many traditions, carries the sobering name of “The Starving Time” or words to that effect. Here we are at the time of year when the winter food stores are all but exhausted (if not literally used up) but the planting, just started, hasn’t produced any edibles yet.
As it happens, while today we will eat a more traditional Easter meal in our homestead, it will feature leftover vegetable soup from last night.
