Homemade vegetable soup

-
I like to cook. I often eat in. I had a limp carrot around so I decided to make a vegetable soup with chicken stock. Big manly chunks of carrot, celery, and tomatoes, slices of yellow onion, dices of baby potatoes and for zesty oomph I added cilantro and bacon left over from the BLT I made for lunch. (I loves me some bacon. Thank you Jesus.) Mm-mmm good!


I reached for the towel paper and as I sat it back the roll tipped over my bowl. I wanted to flip over the kitchen but the antidote was too glaring not to appreciate: no use crying over spilt soup. So I reached for the towel paper again---and then flung the damn thing across the room---fixed myself another bowl and resumed eating my delicious vegetable soup in peace.

One of the things I really like about living in Mexico is that I eat so very well when here. Food is so cheap and fresh and plentiful. And I have money left over for Happy Hour(s)-----which are cheap and plentiful, too! Yes, I eat better here than in most other places where I've laid my hat; coupled with lots of walking, sunshine, and cheap gym rates I'm just a healthy so-and-so.


I loooooove my life!
