Divorce 14 March 2010

World’s Best Chicken Soup 14 March 2010
I have sought the secret for fifty years — never consulting a recipe. That’s me all over. But today I finally did it — I made the world’s best chicken soup. You know how horribly bland the stuff can be. Pouring on the tabasco sauce is no remedy. Then you get hot-bland. Dreadful. But I always thought there must be a way — and there is. If you are patient, you […]
