Winter Soup Party

This is the perfect time of the year for soup. It warms you up from a cold and wintery night and it is so comforting too (especially when you're sick). I love that soup can be thick and hearty making it a main dish or can be a light starter. I hope you enjoy these soup recipes for a soup party or for just a warm get together with friends and family...don't forget the bread and dessert!

My main Thanksgiving dessert was the one and only pumpkin cheesecake which I enjoy baking every year. For Christmas, I love to have a variety of treats...from cookies to bars to homemade quick breads and cheesecake (of course). Here are some of my favorite ones for this year and from years past:
