Old Fashion Vegetable Barley Soup

This old time soup recipe reminds me of my childhood.  I grew up in rural Southern Indiana where my family operated an old-fashion general store.  We sold everything from kerosene and gas to fresh sliced luncheon meats and cheeses.  The center of this huge old building held a big old pot-bellied coal stove to provide heat.  Vegetable Barley Soup reminds me of the soups, beans, pot roasts, etc that my mom would cook on top of this old stove.  She had slow cooking down to a science long before crockpots were ever invented.  Give this healthy, old-fashion soup a try.  Maybe it will become a favorite of yours or bring back memories for you, too.
