One Soup, Two Ways: Chunky Vegetables and Cream Of Vegetables
I have started a new relationship. Yes, I am in love with a Rebel... Canon Rebel XS. I bought it yesterday and now I can't put it down. My heart flutters every time I hold it. With each picture taken, it beats a little faster. And with every glance, the butterflies in my tummy go haywire. Ok, ok, maybe it's not dramatic like that, but pretty close, no joke... So today, I made soup for my Rebel. Vegetable Soup Two Ways. Just to say "Welcome to the family, sit down and have a hearty soup to warm you up. Make yourself at home!" That kind of thing.... And voila. All I'm missing right now is some thick slices of bread, toasted with melted cheese on top.... Hmmmm.... I am going back to my Rebel. Have a great day and Happy Holidays once again!!!!!
