Crap! It's Cold! Idea #2

Make soup. Then eat it. Maybe with some fresh bread. Then sigh with satisfaction. You could get used to this winter thing....

I never follow a recipe with soup. I just cook off a bit of onion, chuck my choice vegies in a big pot, nearly cover with stock and cook until tender. I then blitz it with a bar mixer and add whatever else needs to be added; fresh herbs, cream etc. This weekend it was potato and leek soup (with a bit of fresh parsley, cream and bacon thrown in.) An oldie but a goodie is always Pumpkin and Coriander soup too.

Whats your favourite soup to make or eat? I'd like some more ideas!
