Hello! I hope everyone had a fun new years. I went to a Olympics themed party, we decided to go as team Japan, we did really well in all the games and came second ( I dominated at ping pong 
) .
What did you do for new years?
Its been really rainy and chilly here lately and the best thing to do in weather like this is have a nice warming soup. This is my favorite soup recipe, I came up with this recipe, because of my love for peas. I keep the ingredients simple so you can taste the peas clearly this is great with a big drizzle of cashew cream.
