sorry! forgot about the coconut thing. but i’ve used it in place of cream, etc in recipes like this and it turns out well. it also, to me, tastes more curry-y because that’s generally what they use in thai curries. maybe not indian. but the bf is thai, as you know, so i have to say i like his curries better.

mama Bear: this is it! and thanks…

VK: In theory, yes…but it was a lot of guacamole. Just sayin’.

Arjewtino: I think naked would be more fun that PJs.

jpk: you know my feelings on coconut and its evil milk. I have no experience with it really, but suspect it would probably work.

how about coconut milk instead of cream or half and half?

On NYE, I wore PJs, which is the best way to go when you’re drinking lots of booze and eating lots of cupcakes. Try it next year.

As long as you hit the gym 4 or 5 times a week you should be able to eat whatever you want as much as you want…. Right? Wait that doesn’t work for everyone, sucks to be them, on that note I’m off to chipotle. Mwha ha ha ha

If this is the same carrot soup you made for a couple of years ago I can easily that even a picky eater like me loved it. It was absolutely delicious.

I have to stop reading your blog right before lunch, since there’s little chance the fare I’ll find in the local food court is going to compare well with what’s here.

On the other hand, you may have found one of the few ways to get me to eat cooked carrots. So there’s that.

Happy New Year!

(I’ve been a little light with the comments lately, and rather than say, “That soup looks yummy,” – although it certainly does – I thought I’d keep this one short and sweet.)

jess: thanks! I think sauteing them for that minute before adding the broth certainly helps. I never have too many issues with Indian spices–curry is meant to cook a long time, but I could be lucky.

I-66: it is true. you will see!!
