Cheddar Broccoli Soup, Beer Bread, Salami

Tonight's dinner was supposed to be scramble, but we had a beer bread mix calling my name and the weather was perfect for a creamy soup.  It's not in line with the low(er)-carb direction I'm taking our household meals, but it's not outside my comfort zone for an occasional special meal.  And it was certainly special.

The wind is cold, cold, cold on my nose.  But the soup warms me, down to my toes.
