An Easy Meal

November 28, 2006

Soup and sandwiches ~ comforting meals, 

rather like an old sweater. There is any old soup 

~ one from a recipe or a ‘Must Go’ soup from 

the refrigerator to fit the mood of the day. 


In summer I love a delicious cold soup 

~ this summer it was sweet potato soup 

made in March and from the freezer . 

The more high society soups are really 


no different. To make them special 

they must be served in the finest china 

with silver cutlery. Sandwiches are created 

from what’s available and for me, 


require buttered bread before 

salami or ham or tomatoes are 

nestled in with a crown of 

lettuce; a dill pickle skewered on top.

“I can make a couple of good sandwiches: tuna salad and 

chopped egg salad. And Greek bean soup.”
