Hey Catherine, what are you doin' out of bed? You shouldn't be standing in your kitchen preparing soup, you hear me? Tell that wonderful daughter of yours to bake you another nice cake; stay under the blankets and enjoy being served... Anyway, your soup sounds and looks as yummy as all your other recipes, so being ill doesn't prevent you from preparing fabulous meals (and taking fabulous photos of them)! Best to you from Paris, xoxoxo Dieter
