Lunch

[ghoti_mhic_uait]

I made cauliflower soup and toasted sandwiches for our lunch today. Benedict protested that that was REALLY WEIRD and I didn't ought to have. We decided on an LJ poll to settle the matter.

[Poll #959526]

(He later decided it was OK, because he liked the soup.)

No gentleman eats soup at luncheon!

Did you ask him why he thought it was weird?

I'd maybe think it weird if they were part of a packed lunch and were cold.

It's only a little weird because it sounds rather a lot to me. Either part on its own would be a perfectly normal lunch.

Again, a poll with a missing option:

(x) Never had it myself, but it sounds like an excellent idea.

After all, if toast+soup is good, and toast+filling is good, all you need is a filling that goes OK with the soup and you're sorted.

Its a fine lunch for other people.
I wouldn't go round eating cauliflower soup myself, because of the lack of flesh in it and I regard flesh as a necessary soup component

To me it's a little weird.. but that's because i've not heard of cauliflower soup before! ;)

But then, I've led a sheltered life, and tend to stick to what i know ;)

Other than that - soup and toasted sandwiches sounds like a good lunch to me ;)

How did you make the cauliflower soup? Did you use chicken or vegetable stock? Did you add milk? Did you add cheese?

Funnily enough, John didn't used to like salad, because in his house, it was big pieces and no dressing, and I didn't like salad, because in our house it was often lots of lettuce and just oil, and too bitter, but we both like the salads we each make: John makes a salsa, everything cut tiny, with lime juice, maybe chilli, I make salad with things cut up a bit larger, and a proper dressing, e.g. French dressing.

Is your livejournal-mailing address bouncing me because chiark is yet again being grumpy about hotmail, or is that no longer valid ? I can resend from gmail if that helps, or alternatively, mail rysmiel at hotmail if you have another address that is preferable ?
