Happy Saturday friends! It’s the final day of life of a soup girl, and we’re going out with a bang… or maybe a smash. Either way, it’s BIG.

I haven’t shared too many life updates lately, but this week has been one of the best since I started this “job.” Big wins over here: I hired an incredible assistant, signed with a new manager, and finally feel like I’m back in my groove. Maybe it’s because the sun has vanished and I have precisely zero FOMO about being outside. 🫢

On the horizon: some fun popups (more on that soon), EPIC holiday recipes, and all the joy of the holiday season - because holiday season also = birthday season over here (Reggie’s next Wednesday and mine in just over a month! 🎉)

So, enjoy the final soup recipe before we fully dive into FALL + HOLIDAY magic.

Also if there’s anything Holidayish you’re dying to see me create - drop a request below OR share your favorite Thanksgiving tradition. Let’s get festive together!
