Pumpkin soup is comforting, tummy-hugging, and wholesome. My mother used to make this yummy orange treat for us kids all the time during the fall. In fact, I remember one time she made it for Halloween and told us it was All Saints Soup. My mother really was a clever gal. I wonder if she will make pumpkin soup this year now that my siblings and I are all grown up? It would be very special if she did.
I love eating soup on cold fall/winter days.
