Feeling Souper!


I know a lot of things about a lot of stuff, but blogging is not one of them. So as I embark on this very new and popular arena, I asked my partner in crime if I could write about anything I wanted; because as you all know we are experts on dating…but there is more to life than just our dating adventures.

She of course replied with an emphatic yes! Hoping of course if she told me I could write about anything that I would write about something. (As the Queen of Procrastination, it’s easy for life to get in the way of my weekly blogging assignment.**)

Testing the waters, I dove further; Can I write about soup? Her response surprised me. “A very brilliant business man we recently met, Mark Victor Hansen, wrote hundreds of books about soup. I don’t see why not!” Holy cow, she’s brilliant!! We too can make millions, I’m going to write about soup, here goes nothing.

Everyday for lunch I have to make a decision about what to eat. Should I be a big spender and order Thai food from next door, indulge and get loaded nachos from the corner Mexican shop, or be smart and bring lunch from home? The last option proves to be a practice in preparation, and usually winds up as wasted food in the garbage, and me eating a slice of toast with cheese. Mmmm, that’s nutritious day after day.

That’s when I discovered the perfect food, granted it is not the perfect date food for obvious slurping and splashing reasons, but the perfect food for the hard working, single soul. There are so many options, no prep time, minimal cooking, very little clean up and these days it’s even portable. Things have been getting very serious, I’m now having soup for lunch and dinner. It’s great, I get the pleasure of variety coupled with the comfort of monotony. Huh, maybe this blog was about relationships after all.

Take my advice and have a souper day!


**Notice I said weekly assignment. What was the last post date? Oops!
