Bring water for pasta to a boil.
Meanwhile, bring milk, broth, garlic, bay leaf, thyme and pepper to a boil.
Remove from heat. Cover and let stand for 15 minutes.
Remove bay leaf.
Melt margarine in saucepan.
Stir in flour; cook, stirring constantly, until mixture is bubbly; about 1 minute.
Add milk mixture, whisking constantly.
Remove from heat.
Cover and let stand for 2 minutes.
Return pan to medium high heat and bring to a boil, whisking constantly.
Reduce heat to medium low.
Simmer, stirring often, until sauce has thickened and is smooth, about 8 to 10 minutes.
While sauce is simmering, cook pasta in boiling water; drain.
Microwave vegetables until just tender.
Chop into small pieces.
