Eating. Not Fiddling.


It seems like every other minute I have another stupefying, demoralizing notification on my phone. So I think a topic of food and other less traumatic topics are in order.

I was rummaging through the refrigerator freezer and found an unmarked container. I really do need to get in the habit of labeling and face that I will not remember what is in there. I thawed it and found roasted eggplant soup. Yesterday was cool and rainy so why not enjoy a bowl of soup for lunch? No reason I can think of. Because we are in a stressful time I think a bowl of ice cream after the soup is just the ticket. So, we went for it. Then......



Why not indulge in a bit of excess with tortellini, artichoke hearts and Alfredo sauce? Yes, please. I will say, although good, I would like some broccoli in there next time. I have leftover so I think I will add some broccoli to it. When Rome is burning and I don't fiddle, why not indulge in good food? Why not indeed.


As an added bonus, how about a sun-loving cat enjoying her life of luxury on the screened porch? We all should be so lucky.

Thank you Linda. Tomorrow is going to be very hot and very humid. No soup for me!

I'm not the only person fitting in a bowl of soup when the weather cools off even a bit? Eating well is protest!

I find an excuse for soup anywhere I can, Boud!
