This is really good with some nice crunchy croutons on top as well. I’ve used a little corn starch mixed into some cream to help thicken it up.

I did thicken it with a bit more flour than the recipe called for as I like a thicker cream of mushroom soup, but other than that, I wouldn't change a thing. Definitely making this again and again.

I learn something new every day and I realize that little changes in how I consume can make a big difference. Pam:

I know what you mean about changing taste buds and the satisfaction that comes of going fresh, natural, organic, local and sustainable. I still have a way to go, but I'm getting there. Nice piece.

They had some Mexican Tile Styled ones that I really wanted, but they were gone when I went back to get this one. I love the brightness of the blue. Best thing - only $45. Christie:

I am patiently waiting for my tomatoes to start coming in. My plants have flowers on them, so not too terribly long. This evening, after a very long day of very hard work, I will settle down outside for a little garden therapy myself. I love that blue bird bath!

Although its been so bloody dry here so far this spring that I'm worried about watering. Time to shred newspaper and paper and use it as mulch. My thumb is getting greener the more I do this.
