Jewish Penicillin

Sorry for the lapse in posting folks, but I managed to catch some sort of cold. It's prevented me from entering the kitchen for anything more complicated than the microwave. Germy mess of a girl + raw food = nothing delicious, so I decided to spare everyone and stay in bed. My cousin has been providing me with various forms of soup and other invalid foods this week. The best of which I have to say was the mushroom soup from Thai Kitchens. It's one of those cup-of-soup style bowls where you add the seasoning and the boiling water and let the noodles get soft. Normally, I'm not a huge fan of processed foods because they never taste as good as homemade, but the mushroom soup was a welcome change from chicken broth and rice. Something about a steaming bowl of broth when you're sneezy and achy and miserable just comforts you. I am looking forward to healthy-people food again though. Hopefully in time for Rob and Karen's big bash. Until then, back to soup, ice cream, and OJ.

  1. Hi Shoshana,

    Ugh! I am sick right along with you. I have some frozen soup base defrosting right now to make Tortilla Soup, but I just don't have it in me. (Frying the tortillas, slicing avocados, etc.) Here's hoping that you'll feel better soon. (What is with summer colds, anyway? At least that's what I think/hope I have!)

    Best,
    Casey
