Add 4 cups of good chicken stock (I had some in my freezer that was really thick) and add 2 or 3 small, diced potatoes and a couple sprigs of thyme. Bring to a steady simmer for 10 minutes, and then add chopped fresh green beans (about a cup), about a half cup of frozen peas and a handful of gnocchi. Soup is ready when gnocchi are tender. Salt and pepper to taste.Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07630354073303047529noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12768753.post-8543750651025377962008-12-16T08:19:00.000-08:002008-12-16T08:19:00.000-08:00Ken - The grass is always greener, I guess. ;)Jube...Ken - The grass is always greener, I guess. ;)<BR/><BR/>Jube - They're actually Super Mario Bros. 1-Up Mushroom slippers, if you must ask.<BR/><BR/>Peter the Greek - Despite living in Canada, or <I>because of</I> living in Canada? :D Man, I'm fucking hilarious.<BR/><BR/>Petah - The southern hemisphere is sounding pretty nice right about now.<BR/><BR/>Abdominator - At least it isn't a forceshield on the road.

That sounds like something involving reptilian comet survivors and vestigial limbs.<BR/><BR/>Rachel - Portland just doesn't have its shit together in that department. Sure, you can recycle anything, and ride a bus for 50 miles, but we have no snow-related infrastructure.
