Beginning to wonder if the two of us are ever going to get completely over this cold. It's just lingering on and on.
Hopefully by tomorrow it will be completely gone as we are planning on putting our kayaks in the Intercoastal and kayaking a few miles out to the Boca Inlet and then snorkeling the reefs around there.
Making one of my favorite soup recipes today,
Tomato Soup
