Cooler weather is coming! In our family that means "Soup on Sunday's". Nana's Rocket Soup has always been one of our favorites. There is nothing like it to warm you on a cold day or kick that sinus headache in the behind.

Love the post. Someday I will tell you how Rocket Soup got it's name. I don't know why it stuck, but it is good name for the soup. We all love it.

This is the best soup ever and the only soup I crave when I am not feeling well. It always hits "the spot" no matter what! We all love it!

One thing she used to tell me, was to put Mrs. Dash in it. It can replace the salsa. It makes it extra spicy if you use a lot.

The Recipe File

It was impossible to visit with Nana and not get into the recipe file. This is no small file. Tracy, Sydney and I have all at one time or another attempted to typeset the recipes in this file only to be overwhelmed. Since no one person is up to the task of immortalizing this life's work of recipes, it would be great if everyone participates. As you need recipes for different things you can take them and typeset them, or scan them however you would like to do them. Then post them on this site to contribute your part in all this.  Please add a label to your posts so we can eventually go in and organize by category. It was Nana's dream to have a book that would help us all with the various things we will make in our kitchens. She spent a lifetime perfecting her craft and was truly amazing. When we feel we have done her justice, we will organize a book and have copies printed for all of us. I hope as we contribute not only her recipes, but some of our own as well we will remember how much she loved to bring people together over good food. It will be such a tribute to her if we can enjoy this endeavor, enjoy each other and enjoy the memories we all have in our hearts.
