Bring to boil the vegetables, chopping the celery, onion, and broccoli before adding to pot. I used a Dutch oven but it doesn't need to be. When vegetables are tender, transfer them into food processor and purée. Add back into Tomatoe juice and continue on a simmer. Add all the seasoning and simmer for 10 minutes. Mix the flour and sugar in separate bowl and using a whisk, stir in some of the soup till its mixed, then add to the pot, using whisk to blend and bring to boil, stirring until soup thickens. Add cream shortly before serving. Garnish with your choice of shredded cheese or biscuits or whole wheat rolls.
