Celery Soup with Apples and Blue Cheese

Very easy to make and would be as good without the toppings.

This is possibly the best soup I have ever made and I have made many... Serve with crusty bread, a salad of field greens, and a lovely Chardonay and you're done- Fabulous!!

I did not achieve "smooth" like a butternut squash soup, but the flavor profile is amazing. I wonder if there's a way to incorporate the apples better.

I tried this soup twice. After the first time I made three changes: I peeled some of the fibers off of the celery before cooking it, I doubled the apples and butter and then incorporated that into the soup, and I added whole milk with a tablespoon of cornstarch instead of the cream (since I felt like the butter was adding enough fat). On the first try it was good, and on the second try it was very good!

A.ma.zing!
