CREAMY CUCUMBER SOUP

Aside from always making cucumber into salad, I found a recipe at the net for a cucumber soup.

2 lbs. peeled cucumbers, chopped
Salt and pepper to taste
1/2 c. hot water
1 med. onion, chopped
1 clove of garlic, chopped (optional)
1 green pepper, chopped (optional)
1 tbsp. butter
2 c. light cream
2 tbsp. chopped parsley

Combine the cucumbers, salt, pepper, water, onion, garlic and green pepper in a saucepan and cook until vegetables are tender. Remove from heat and cool. Place in blender container and blend. Place back in the saucepan and add butter and cream. Heat through, then sprinkle with parsley. May be served cold. 6 servings.

Vacation plan

Visiting Grand Canyon is one in my husband travel list. We received the already the 2009 summer vacation catalog and one of the offer is about las vegas hotel reservations. It is interesting since from vegas it is also possible to visit the other attractive places in there. We need to plan well our next vacation and we can consider this offer too.
