Still in comfort food mode
I’m dreaming of steak and stilton pie. Last week I found broccoli and stilton soup at Waitrose. It was the most divine thing I had tasted in a long time. The lady gave me a sour look when she spotted my Tesco natural bag, which I thought was funny because I was thinking “hey lady, you should just be happy I’m shopping in your expensive store today rather than at Tesco.” But, enduring the look was worth it. The soup was awesome. I felt like I just melted right into it. It was so rich, creamy and warming. It had me fully intentioned to learn how to make it myself. Until Moose, who actually likes to cook, warned me about the intricacies of soup making and then I got bored with the idea, really fast.
This morning we went for a short run around the village where Crunchy husband grew up. This, of course, gave him the opportunity to relay all the usual stories he’s told me a hundred times before. After that, I feel fully deserving and ready for my steak and stilton pie. Yum!

Waitrose has some brilliant hummous too. The only one I couldn’t get into was the guacomole hummous as it was quite an odd combo of mexi-mediterranean.
Getting hungry now :-). Enjoy your pie!

Oops! You should totally make the soup! Just avoid soups that require you to make the stock before you make the soup. Your soup making process is lengthened by about two hours.
