POTATO LEEK SOUP - Soupe de poireaux et pommes de terre

One of my goal for this year is to eat healthy.  This is the Potato Leek Soup from Chef Thomas Keller's Bouchon cookbook.  I have never tasted Leek before.  I was hesitant, but dared to try it for the first time.  and Wow! I love it.  Can't wait to challenge myself to make all kinds of other European/American style cooking.  (Click on the photo to view details.)

 

 

 

 

Almond Streusel Muffin Top

I added bit more butter to mix the streusel toppings and topped the almond slices first, then the streusel made this muffin even more better.  The sour cream really do a great wonder in the baked goods.

Hot Pot II

It's been soooo cold and this hot pot really hit the spot.
