Sweet Potato, Sausage, and Kale Soup

This is what we had for dinner and it was delcious. I substituted out Italian flavored Pork Sausage for the turkey sausage and yams for the sweet potatoes which were outrageously over priced ($4.97 a pound~!) The Kale was exceptional in this recipe, it reminds me of a soup I've eaten before down south.

Sweet Pickle Relish

Made this years first batch of sweet pickle relish, since it's been about six years since I've made any it took me a bit to remember what I did the last time. When my next batch of cukes are ready for making relish, they are too small yet, I'll strain the cooked relish a bit so there's less liquid in the jars.
