Strawberry-Lemon Thyme Soup

I found this recipe on pinterest and was intrigued by a cold strawberry soup.  Normally I would  have passed on making this but I wanted to be a little adventerous this year with a few of my CSA items.  I found this soup to be sweet and refreshing on a humid day. So what do you think? Nailed it, right?
