December 11

Our custom on Sunday evenings, after church, is to fix a quick "supper snack" and park in front of the TV to eat and watch. Tonight our meal was French onion soup. Melt a little butter, saute some onion and pour in a can of beef consomme along with a can of water and heat until it simmers. Ladle into bowls, topping the soup with toasted french bread and some kind of white cheese. Heat the bowl of soup for a few seconds in the microwave until the cheese melts. So simple--and soooo good.
