I loved the flavor and so did my husband. I think next time I might add a bit more of the red lentils since they dissolve and it would thicken it a bit more, but the rice gave it a nice thickness (this is only for those who are making it for dieting lol)nannykimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09904490730187017812noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4742343364632742295.post-7835824295021887212012-01-20T20:26:25.449-05:002012-01-20T20:26:25.449-05:00Oh, another good one!

We were spared that but it was bad here and cold and hot soup waiting would be just the ticket.<br /><br />I love seeing the tree. My son just told me today that he may have to go to NYC for work the week before Christmas and his wife was upset. I said, "Take her as a surprise! This is one of the top 10 things to do in your life - go to NYC during Christmas time!" He wondered what she would do all day while he worked! I said, "Duh, shopping!" I hope he takes her, seeing the picture of the tree makes me realize it even more!Jacquelinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10074013194838958441noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4742343364632742295.post-31818430705347748272011-12-02T21:58:45.330-05:002011-12-02T21:58:45.330-05:00Thanks, everyone for all your nice comments.

My mother would read in the paper that someone was murdered in NYC and then she wouldn't want to go. She seemed to forget how many millions of people there were in NYC. I guess she never heard of safety in numbers. :) I never got to Times Square for New Years Eve either. In high school all my friends went, but I wasn't allowed to go. I feel like I missed the big three...the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, The tree lighting ceremony, and New Years Eve. Perhaps someday. Meanwhile, I'll live vicariously through you. I forgot about the Easter Parade. Do they still have it? I remember watching on television all the ladies with the big hats.Bettyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09068151073417372746noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4742343364632742295.post-48046489382927590772011-12-02T17:48:53.263-05:002011-12-02T17:48:53.263-05:00The soup looks delicious Pat!

You inspire me actually, as I've been dipping in to the pre-Xmas sweets a bit already, I could slow down and slim too. ;o) Would you believe not slow-cookers here. Nope, no such thing. Isn't that crazy?! I miss them sometimes. But a pot on the simmer is easy enough. LOVELY collection of glass ornaments you have. And the tree at Rockefeller is always sensational... FUN new banner with it too!

Glad to hear it was a keeper. Good luck on your efforts. Our wedding is over, but I'm working at taking off those troublesome 10 pounds (not that I couldn't afford to lose more) that won't stay gone. I'm checking out train schedules for this weekend to see this year's tree. I love Tony Bennett and still like hearing him sing.
