A bit of warmth, spice and sweetness

THAI COCONUT CURRY SOUP
I needed a snack and thought of getting a smoothie. However, when I went outside, it was cold, rainy and gray. I decided a smoothie would not be the best idea.

Instead, I all of a sudden wanted something warm, flavorful, spicy and homey: SOUP. Au Bon Pain had a new choice of soups: Thai Coconut Curry Soup and I decided to give it a try.

DELICIOUS! Just exactly what I wanted. I think it'd be fun to recreate it: ginger, potatoes, red peppers, coconut milk, curry, onions, tomatoes, bamboo shoots, spinach and lemon grass.
