| My most recent lentil love soup -- happily vegan, curried, and garnished with sunflower seeds and scallions. |
Once, while visiting my sister, I said, "How about some lentil soup?" knowing I was cooking dinner. She shuddered and made as if to retch, all the while saying, "I love lentil soup, but..." Turns out that years ago, when she was still cooking for her family, a very large and delicious kettle of the soup went uneaten by anyone except by her. Days went by, the soup remained, she kept eating until....well, you might get the picture. If you are not used to eating lentil soup (or bean soup or beans)
every day for days on end, and you embark on such a journey, you might find you are in a tad of intestinal distress. No one can fake-retch like my sister or show a horror of food quite like her; I wish I had a picture. I made chicken noodle or asparagus--something else anyway. Maybe we went out?
