80--- Butternut Breakfast Bisque

It seems that the whole country has been in some sort of cold spell for the month.  Which leaves me thinking.........soup for breakfast? 

This bisque is a marriage of sorts.  It has the sweetness that many crave in the morning, but the warm comfort of a soup.  The combination leaves you satisfied all morning long!
