I had some leftover grilled chicken drumsticks in the freezer. I used them in a soup with vegetables and vermicelli.While the soup was simmering, I made my first Christmas tarts. I know, I know, it's too early, but I just couldn't resist the temptation! They go great with coffee! 🍜

Hubby was feeling better (he tripped a little and hurt his back, nothing serious, but it took a few days to heal), so we went for an evening walk. The air felt cold but dry.
I always have rainbow trout in the freezer, so I thawed some and made a warming soup when we got home.🍜
