Dinner. I forgot. Too late now. Not hungry anyway. I support the guacamole lobby though.
Funny thing about black and white. You mix it together and you get gray. And it doesn't matter how much white you try and put back in, you're never gonna get anything but gray.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Low-fat refried beans, guacamole, salsa, and chips are totally a valid dinner choice, right?
I wish I had had that for dinner! I really need to buy avocadoes.

I think if you're thickening with any kind of starch, you're making stew, not soup.
I had sweret potato quesadillas for dinner. They were pretty awesome.
You guys, you know what else is awesome? BREATHING. Using BOTH LUNGS AT ONCE. All hail the mighty albuterol.

Cream soups have starch, don't they? Or am I making shit up.

They have thickeners, which are usually flour. Campbell's cheddar cheese soup/sauce? Contains flour.

I don't think there's a bright line between soup and stew. But a lot of not very stew-like soups are inexplicably made with thickeners.
I need to come up with something to make for dinner. Maybe scrambled eggs?

Commercial ones, maybe. I've never started a cream soup from scratch with a roux, though.

Maybe scrambled eggs?

I don't really have anything to fill an omelet. Out of cheese. No mushrooms to hand. No cooked veggies or meat of any kind lying around.
