Susan,

It's okay to gain weight, and it's even okay if you don't lose the weight. Enjoy the cookies and all the fruits of your labor.

Congrats on your 100th issue! Getting a VitaMix literally eliminated the need to add any cream to any soup. It is a tool that transforms the texture of soups and sauces. Your tips were the gem of this soup newsletter! Totally agree on aromatics and technique. Personally I like to avoid having to peel and chop butternut, honeynut, squash etc and I slice in half and roast then scoop and add to the sauteed leeks, onions etc for the soup. Plus I'm always roasting pumpkins (when available) for the dogs!

Thank you for all the tips on soup making. As soon as I finished reading this newsletter I run into the kitchen to rummage in the fridge vegetable drawer to make a soup for dinner!

Is the chocolate cake recipe for a single layer cake? Could I divide the mix into two pans and if so how long should I cook them?
