Amazing Pumpkin Soup

This is the most amazing soup I have ever tasted. It is my own recipe, adapted from another pumpkin soup recipe. This recipe is catered to my very, very large family so dial down the servings for a smaller family. Also, it is helpful to add the salt and pepper at the end to taste.
