Hip Hop to Tortilla soup

Sure been awhile since I’ve posted to the blog, geez with all the other tools out there, twitter, facebook, email… who can find the time… maybe i will get better about posting here, and use facebook and twitter to promote my posts… ah what a concept (although its just not as easy to do that).  I have two things to post… the girls practicing their hip hop routine for their 4th grade talent contest, and what the girls called their favorite chicken tortilla soup recipe… so there ya have it… both are below…
