I got butter pecan and it tasted sooooo good,mmmmm,L.I.G.!!!On top of that , my family and I are going to Daytona Beach, Florida for the first time since I was 4 and noah,my little brother, wasn't even born yet!!My dad has to go to a class from 8-6:00 each day so who knows what we'll do while dad's in class.I,for one, hope that we'll get to go shop some where so I can get a souvenier ! Get this, we also have to black angus heifers that could have calves any day now so they might have them while we're in Florida!!!

For the Cookin' Queen
Posted by katieviolin
My Aunt got this out of a Bob's Red Mill cookbook. Enjoy!
2 T butter
1 c chopped onion
1 c thinly sliced leek (use 2 inches of green)
2 garlic cloves, minced
1.5 # broccoli
3 c vegetable broth, heated
1 c milk
1/2 c whipping cream (optional)
1/4 t white pepper
1/2 t dry mustard
1 t lemon juice
2 c cooked quinoa
salt
cayenne pepper
In a heavy saucepan melt butter and add onions, leek, and garlic. Cook without browning, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes.
Rinse and trim broccoli, separating the flowerets from the stalks. Slice the stalks into 1/2 inch rounds.
Add the hot broth and broccoli stalks to the saucepan with the onions, leek, and garlic. Bring to a boil and simmer for 15 minutes. Add the flowerets, and simmer for 10 more minutes. Puree the soup (I used my handheld blender), then press it through a sieve (I skipped this part and it was just fine), add the rest of the ingredients. Bring back to a boil and add more milk or water if too thick. Serve warm or chilled.
