Ours was very peppery – just the way we like it!  I hardly did any thyme because I don’t really love it…and we had two bay leaves in it.  I started the soup around 11am and it basically just simmered all day until we ate it around 6pm.  It didn’t require the simmer, but I feel like almost any soup is better with a long simmer…
