In the summer, I basically eat two types of soup all summer long-cold cucumber-yogurt soup, and gazpacho. Both soups are made with veggies I grow in the backyard. Most days, I’m having cups of those with a BLT, also using backyard tomatoes. Mmmm my mouth is already watering at the thought…![]()

Oh, I’m deeply entrenched in the soup cult already, but thank you for the invitation! I have it virtually every day for lunch. I’ve brought one of my kids into the fold as well—potato leek soup made with nothing but potatoes, leeks, salt and water and then puréed is one of his favorite meals. It’s the growing of the vegetable part that seems so dreamy. So far I’ve just managed herbs and random squash that sows itself from the compost pile. A vegetable garden is a huge part of my fantasy of retired life.

Wow I didn’t realize people were eating so much soup. I never eat soup. I live in SoCal but used to live in Boston and didn’t eat soup then either. I do like veggie chili and split pea soup but I prefer the experience of eating/vs slurping/spooning. I never have smoothies/juices for the same reason.
