I can't seem to cook soup small to save my soul. Grandma taught me to
make vegetable soup in a 16 qt stockpot, starting with a couple of beef
soup bones. I could sum up my cooking style as "feeding a great
depression era family of 8"... lol. Hey, the soup lasts me a week and a
half, even when I give some away.
