chicken and wild rice soup...

OMGoodness...I fell in love with this soup at Coco's they have it every Thursday...and those are the days that we go there if eating out...so good...

for myself, when trying to figure out their recipe, I wanted mine a little thicker than their's...I also used to be afraid of soups and when wanting to make one, would have to search the internet for a recipe and try that one...I am proud to say "I am no longer afraid of making my own soups from scratch...here is my version...................

I am also bragging here....it is only 2:30 here in sunny Calif. and dinner is done...
