Sounds delicious. I'm about due to make another batch of pumpkin soup. I'll try it with the hoegarden.

Today's soup is roast capsicum and tomato. Damn good recipe.

The bread I got from the Central Markets (gotta lurve Saturday afternoon specials). Turkish bread, about 1 foot wide and a metre long. I put butter and crushed (in a jar) garlic on it, bake it in the oven and cut into triangles. Made a good pizza base too.

I'm sad now because it's all gone.
