Mmmmm. Homemade soup.
I'm making a big pot of cream of cauliflower soup right now. My son just walked in and asked me, 'What stinks?' I guess I better be coming up with an alternative meal for him tonight. :)
I made a big vat of homemade beef stew just a few days ago. I like to use V-8 instead of tomato juice-seems to give it a better flavor and body.
It can't smell as bad as my dad's homemade sauerkraut. The only things that could clear our house were Dad making sauerkraut, and Mom giving me a perm.
One time Mom and Dad launched into an odor offensive - Mom was perming me and Dad decided he HAD TO MAKE SAUERKRAUT RIGHT THIS SECOND - and my eyes still water when I think about that.
We had to open all the windows, and that is a project not lightly undertaken on a 100-degree summer day in Houston.
Thankfully no one in my house thinks cauliflower stinks......it is about one of my favorite veggies.
