soz : yes , thanks , mrs h is feeling much better again - probably some low level virus . there were several people at the pool that were laid low .
there is usually a large container with soup-stock in the basement-freezer ; so all it takes is some reheating , perhaps some fresh veggies , matzo balls if time allows - a nice montreal bagel will do in a pinch - and we have a quick lunch ready .
(sending some chicken-soup with matzoballs across the wires !
)
funny story about matzoball soup :
when ehbeth went to waterloo u she brought 'mark' along .
he was a (jewish) student from one of her classes .
mrs h was a bit frazzled - what could she possibly serve him ?
so matzoball soup was prepared .
eh and mark arrived .
"would you like some matzo ball soup , mark ?"
a slight frown on mark's face .
the soup was served , he sniffed , he dug in ... did he ever !
"well , i like this matzoball soup ; when my mother makes matzoballs ,
they are like hockey-pucks ! "
for breakfast mark asked for crisply fried bacon
!
(must have been kosher bacon
)
