CAULIFLOWER AND WALNUT CREAM SOUP

Cauliflower and Walnut Cream Soup image

My husband and I were divorced after 10 years of marriage. He claimed that he was fond of making soup, so I gave him a soup cookbook one Christmas. He never made any of them. Then we got married again. (Long story). So the soup cookbook is back, too!! I'm purging my cookbook collection but this recipe always sounded so...
