Cream of Zucchini Soup and Green Peony Tea

While Lisa V-J was visiting we rummaged through my vegetarian cook books and decided to make a Cream of Zucchini Soup found in "The Cooks Encyclopedia of Vegetarian Cooking" by Linda Fraser. I must admit that I was skeptical- I mean, I like Zucchini; I like Cream soups- but both together sounded a little strange to me... Well I was proven wrong- the soup was delicious (and pretty easy to make too)! You can find the recipe here if you are interested. (We used Gorgonzola cheese and I recommend it!). We also tried a new tea that evening- Green Peony Tea from Peet's. It was pretty neat to watch as the the dried flower fills the cup you are drinking from.
