A certain chill is in the air. The mornings are nippy. The days still harbor a lingering warmth, but not for much longer.

Time for soup! Soothing, comforting soup!

The one dish that fills the the nooks and crannies, spreading a cozy assuredness that all will be right in the world.

Soup Recipes

The Julienne Soup recipe below offers a splendid, rich broth that would be perfect for the thermos on fall or winter outings.

I couldn’t just give you the recipe, though – that would be denying you the opportunity to experience the full effect of the cookbook.

1893 World’s Fair Souvenir Cook Book.

Here’s a full page out of the 1893 World’s Fair Souvenir Cook Book. For those of use who may not recall, the 1893 World’s Fair was held in Chicago, and called the Columbian Expedition, to celebrate the 400th anniversary of Christopher Columbus. The recipes were authored by all of the ladies participating in the fair committees. Under each contribution, you’ll see the lady’s signature and hometown.

Love the actual photograph of the Transportation Building (Cost: $170,000, 260×960 ft.) – very modern!

Here’s to Fall!
