Lentils - round two

this is where i started last year in re-introducing myself to the dried bean/legume...  i struggled with getting the consistency right so figured the smallest legume around is the lentil...  i must admit I will have to go through my notes - yes I keep notes on almost everything - to see what I did with them last year... this year - I am trying a lentil soup with a hint of dried apricot...  the beans go in the water today - guess the cooking will happen tomorrow...
