This makes me want to do several things*: 1) Go to Louisburg for cider and apples, 2) Stop sewing Halloween costumes and Make The Soup and 3) Walk to the Phoenix for some lovely stoneware soup bowls. Well done, my friend.

*Hugs are a given.

Robin: thanks, dear. You only shooed me out a few times. You know where I belong.

Global Patriot: spoken like a wine reviewer! Hope you try out your own bowl soon.

brickgrrl: you are as welcome as your very kind words. Thank you.

Natalie: thanks. Isn’t it amazing how sensory all the bowls and spoons and dishes are?

Joyce: I know that Chicagoland freeze all too well. Time to make some soup!

Theresa: just like all your woolly, beautiful projects – full of comfort.

Rachel: welcome, and thanks for your good wishes.

Julia: “with lots of cheese” is key here – the apples are just a bonus!

French-onion soup with lots of cheese baked on top is one of my favorite meals in winter, but would I have ever thought of adding apples to it this way? No, I would not. Sounds amazing to me.

What a beautiful post. It got me all choked up. -J

I am so sorry to (belatedly) learn of your loss. I’m a newish reader, and as I’ve been ill, and caught up in the hectic bustle that is Advent around my home on top of that, well, I’ve not been here since very early this month.

Please, please, DO “take care of you and yours”–eat well, but not too much. Try and sleep. Drink the water. Love those nearest you..

My father is only a couple of years younger than yours, and I pray that I will have him with me for many more…but if not, I pray I can be as composed, and thought-full, as you seem here…

I don’t know you – but you have my deepest condolences, and, honestly, all the hugs in the world. (And my husband will thank you for the soup recipe–he LOVES this kind of soup. Maybe I can surprise him with it…).

Many prayers for you and yours…

Hi-
This is my first visit to your blog and love it, AND this recipe!! As soon as I’m finish writing this note I’m off to post you on my favorites!!

My friend after reading this post and a couple before I’m sorry to hear about your dad- My heart goes out to you and your family. My dad was 84 yrs and passed away this past Sept 5th. My heart still aches of pain. It is funny how a lot of try to fill the void and ease the pain with food.

Thanks for sharing! xoxox
PS- if it wasn’t so cold here in the Chicagoland area I would run out for the ingredients for the soup now!

sending lots of thoughts and prayers your way, natalie.

Marilyn, my heartfelt condolences. I arrived here through a very compassionate friend. Your wisdom- and obvious talent in communicating it- is a gift you give us all. Beautiful post, extraordinarily done. Cheers, dear.

Great flavor combination with the onions and apples, providing that splash of crisp acidity that balances with the savory, wish I had a bowl!
