Stone soup

If you are ever in a situation to participate in making stone soup with your child’s pre-school class, bear these tips in mind:

  1. Don’t bring the onion.
  2. If you bring the onion, don’t chop it first.
  3. If you chop it, for goodness sake, double-bag it.

Doubtless these tips aren’t necessary if you are accustomed to handling onions or have an average IQ. My car, on the other hand, still smells like an onion farm.

My husband, I love him to death, but will order a hamburger and instead of saying, “No Onions and Pickles.” in fear of them forgetting to take those things off, just leaves them on and removes them himself…then puts them in the bag…which then is left in the car over night. I have taken out stock in Febreeze.
