I eat it out, not much at home. My wife learned how to make chicken
soup from my mother and that, with matzo balls in it, is something we
have maybe once or twice a year here. Otherwise, I love French Onion
soup, clam chowder, lobster bisque, and other heavy/hearty soups, but
they've always seemed too much work to make at home. I'm sure that's
not true but it's what always happens when we contemplate making soup,
"Nah, it'll take too long."
