    John and I recently had the privilege of enjoying this delicious and healthy Gazpacho soup as prepared by Mr. Ulmer, what a treat! He also prepared a recipe from PTIM’s newsletter for chicken with white beans and spinach (which he creatively substituted arugula for). It was a very enjoyable evening with great company,
