The Soup

Perhaps because of its huge endowment losses this fiscal year, the School was incredibly cold yesterday. After classes, we all wanted a nice cup of soup. Most people settled for beer. I -- wallet-less and abstaining at the moment (yeah, sounded like a real alcoholic when I broke that to my new classmates. note to self: need new way of explaining that I'm not drinking anymore), settled for water. It was awesome after 2 weeks to sit with people as broke as I am and talk about all those doctors in our program. But I digress.

This morning, the rain canceled Common Good Day and afforded me 1.5 extra hours of sleep, extra time for an epi problem set, and a chance to make soup- cauliflower soup. Nothing more than cauliflower and hot water, really, plus some seasoning. I remembered that I still had some tomatoes and threw those in the blender at the last minute. Brilliant choice on my part. The croutons ruined my picture above but not my palate. Crunchy, buttery, salty goodness. Easiest soup and quickest clean up ever. I wish every Saturday was soup day.
