A weekend full of ACL music, best friends, duck faces, beers, more beers, sitting in the grass, and cold fronts led to lots and lots of sniffles.  And lots and lots of sniffles led to making this soup, one of the best soups I’ve ever made, again.

I stopped at Whole Foods on my way home from work today, thankful for their bulk department.  For a mere 40 cents, I eliminated any sort of which-spices-am-I-out-of guess work (it’s cumin by the way, I’m out of cumin).  And then I got home and mindlessly dumped everything into the crock pot.

I ladled myself a bowlful and was quickly reminded how much I adore brothy soups with lime and cilantro.  My roommate dug it too, “This soup is good, Kristin.  Like really, really good.”.
