I replied about my daughter. As for myself... I find myself
wanting soup. In fact, that is frequently the first sign that all
is not well.

Oh, and I suppose I should confess that the soup is frequently
store-bought tomato (now Amy's, and not that HFCS-laden famous
brand) or cream of mushroom. I also like hot and sour,
avgolemono, or tom yum.
