I must be going into hibernation. I elect to leave holiday parties early to get into bed at a more than reasonable time, My yard has had none of my attention for a solid month, and I cannot get enough root vegetables. My favorite vegetable at the moment is the Japanese sweet potato. When I take a night-off from the tuber-of-my-eye, I often make soup. The following is a winter veggie bisque recipe that will aid you through the holidays. It is hearty, yet light. Full of flavor, and also full of ginger, garlic, and turmeric to aid your immune system. Merry, Merry!
