Oh my is this a heavenly bowl of goodness. Very proud that on a recent trip upstate I picked tomatoes and dill fresh from the garden. Could not have found a more fitting treatment to showcase my summer bounty. The soup has a lovely richness that suggest a more fussy preparation with sauteing and layering and one would never guess that it is more or less dump and run. The orange manages to brighten the dill without becoming an addition flavor to muddle the palate. I left out the sugar as it was unneeded. Thanks!

<p>I live in Northern California in the town of Placerville. It's a one hour drive East to Lake Tahoe or one hour West to our State Capitol, Sacramento. Great location. <br /> I have been overdue for an update!!! 1/10 <br /> My Boy's are doing well. Nick is still in Australia and Jon is still here at home. They both graduated high school last year. I hope NIck will come to the US for college, Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo!!! (we'll see) He may stay down under for college :( <br />Jon is working and figuring out life....he plans on being an entrepreneur im sure. <br />We have two dogs, Jewel and Bob both adopted from the local shelter. They love each other. <br />I love spring and fall the most and love being outdoors. <br />My Boss passed away last year :( I miss him soooo much. <br />This last year has been very hard for me. <br />I am doing better now. <br />Hoping 2010 brings lots of health and happiness to all :) <br /> <br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/beartag_1_1.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /><a href=http://photobucket.com target=_blank> <img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/adopted_1_1.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /></a> <br /> <br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/200_artistrichardneuman-art-prints_.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /> <img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/untitled.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /> <br /> <br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/projects/200_PACpic.jpg border=0 alt=Photo /> <img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/projects/pacbanner.jpg border=0 alt=Photo /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/Adopted1smp.jpg border=0 alt=Photo /> <br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/smPACp.jpg border=0 alt=Photo /> <br /><img src=http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b280/carolinamoon21/Octoberevent.jpg alt= /> <br /><img src=http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b280/carolinamoon21/Ingredients/Other/photo-swap-7sticky.jpg alt= /><img src=http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a142/callylanne/candy.jpg alt= /> <br /> <br /><img src=http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y53/DUCHESS13/RSC%20Banners/RSC11-Participant.jpg alt= /> <br /><img src=http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Iwasadopted.jpg alt= /> <br /><img src=http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Participation.jpg alt= /> <br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/craze-e2banner.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /></p>
