The mood is definitely "soupy" on this cold rainy day in the Delta! (Now I know it's not cold by Maine standards, but for Mississippians, this is cold.) And cold weather just cries out for Soup!
I'm making Cheddar Cheese Soup tonight using my Positively Smashing Potato Soup Mix! I'm going to make it by the directions with 6 cups of milk and my soup mix and then stir in a bunch of grated cheddar cheese. Freshly grated, not the sacked kind that never melts quite right for me! I'm probably going to hit it with a little Tabasco - just a touch - and sprinkle some green onions on top of the bowls at the table!
With some Tomato Basil Beer Bread and some butter! A meal fit for a King! Especially B.B. King!
You've "heard" me say this before, but Indianola has just opened the new B.B. King Museum and Delta Interpretive Center and it is just fabulous! You have got to plan a trip to the Mississippi Delta, spend time in the Museum and be sure to eat lunch at The Crown!
We serve lunch from 11:00 to 3:00 (to accommodate visitors who just can't tear themselves away from the exhibits and the sounds of B.B. talking and singing) but you can always just stop by to shop, drink a cup of coffee or eat some Praline Pie! We'd love to see you anytime!
Visit the King and Eat at The Crown! We offer two soups every day! This week it's Chicken and Sausage Gumbo and Broccoli and Swiss Cheese Soup! Maybe tomorrow, Cheddar Cheese Potato Soup...who knows!
