Chicken Sausage, Sweet Potato and Kale Soup by Kristy Brazelton

My family loves the potato and sausage soup at Olive Garden. So I made up this soup to try & replace the Olive Garden one with healthier food options. It's really chunky & filling and very tasty served with some fresh chopped italian parsley & fresh grated parmesean on top, if desired.

My daughter turned 15 this weekend. She wanted a cake we saw on Pinterest. Sadly the Pinterest link to the recipe was no longer a good link. So I made up this cake for her.
