I keep hitting the snooze button on this blog.

Beans, Beans...

Sunday seemed like the perfect time to try this black bean pumpkin soup, October 31, the right night for a smokey, simmering (slightly mysterious?) pot on the stove. I found this in the archives at Smitten Kitchen and kept it up my sleeve until Brian announced he'd really like black bean soup, soon, please. He doesn't usually go for pumpkin stuff, at least not baked into bread or stuffed into cream puffs or in a cup like a pumpkin chai latte drizzled with caramel. This recipe promised to be naked pumpkin- no sugar, no spice, no cream base. It was so easy to make and turned out exactly like I expected. Exactly like the picture. Except I didn't serve it with the seeds because I was way too lazy to carve a Jack O Lantern this year. Booo.
