A quiet day, yesterday, so I decided to do some cooking. Stone soup. Lovely! You know the recipe? No? Well, you take a nice stone and you put it in a pot with some water over the fire. If you want to make a special stone soup you can add an onion or two, so I did, because it was Sunday. Let it cook for a while, then, if you want to make your stone soup really tasty, put in a carrot and perhaps a little cabbage. Hm! Yummy!
Then, if it’s a truly delicious stone soup you’re after, add a few lentils and some salt to taste. Just before the end, don’t forget to take out the stone.
And that’s how you make stone soup.
Mr. Ellery,
ReplyDeleteAre you serious about the stone soup? Or is it just a joke?
