Thank You's and a Soup!

So, life has picked up a little bit in my recovery from the blizzard of 2011.  As in, I actually have to go to my classes and do school work.  Grad school is a bit of a different beast than college.   If anyone reads this, I just wanted to say thank you to all of the wonderful people who have reached out to me to let me know they enjoyed my essay.  It feels good to have someone beside my parents and myself read my work, and I hope that is a feeling I can get used to, as I get older. 

I have a recipe of the week for you.  Fajita Soup. This soup is awesome.  Full of veggies, spice and equally delish.  You make it in the slow cooker so it is also super easy!  Here it is: (I took it from Sandra Lee on the Food Network, she also made homemade tortilla chips to go along, I opted out.)  http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/sandra-lee/spicy-fajita-soup-recipe/index.html

Ingredients:
   2 medium yellow onions, sliced
   2 green peppers, cored, seeded, and sliced into strips
   1/2 cup frozen corn, thawed
   1 (14-ounce) can diced tomatoes
   1 tablespoon chopped garlic
   1 tablespoons chile powder

Directions
In the sleeve of a slow cooker, add the onions, peppers, corn, tomatoes, garlic, 1 tablespoon chile powder, chipotle, and broth. Season with and salt and pepper, to taste. Cook on low for 4 to 6 hours
