Blame Dan Hankle for this one!

Saturday is Farmers' Market day where I presently live, and I knew when Dan posted this recipe that my arthritic'd body would appreciate it, it having told me that "turmeric is good!" frequently in the past. Of course I changed some things- Goranson's has totally amazing carrot varieties, so it wasn't just the plain old orange ones that I cooked for this soup.
I also added a beet-and its greens- though it's a golden beet, not the usual red kind
I also added a piece of fresh turmeric, peeled, to the pot.
The vegetables all cooked, I whirred them in my Bullet (the hand held blender has long since bit the dust) and I ended up with something that resembled pea soup, rather than carrot colored.
But no matter! It was delicious! I moved it out of vegan fare by adding a dollop of sour cream and sprinkling the top with a mix of chopped dill and cilantro. Those two smells in the car on the way home from the market told me that the combination would be heavenly, and it was!It's a good thing I took a photo when I first ladeled it out, because there is none left now....
