Soup

[annadomino]

What do you eat/drink it with?
I have been brought up to use a soup spoon, and it seems so right. My OH and others I know use a desert spoon. Not right, is it?

[annadomino]

Tigger, the main course knife and fork are the biggest, starter or dessert knives/forks are smaller

[micmak]

IMO, the only soup worth eating / drinking is Heinz tomato, out of a mug on a cold winters day.

It's very personal, thought, isn't it, micmak - the one soup I don't like is tomato, avoid it like the plague - it's like the Marmite argument.

[annadomino]

Please no Heinz, DIY is the best

[starone]

Never have soup. Now stew - that is really good and it doesn't matter what you use to eat it.

Boxy, I can remember my mother threatening my father with a steak knife when he bought half a dozen for her Christmas present.

Soups spoons are good but I'll just as often use a dessert spoon.

I would love a couple of butter knives though. I had two but over the years they have both lost thier handles. Can't find new ones anywhere.

Chicken and Asparagas Soup from Morrisons is OK, I don't like brown soups.

[micmak]

Understand Boxy. Can't stand Marmite.

Anna, DIY maybe best. Would you like to come round and make it?

[DaisyNonna]

AYG Have you tried adding crispy bacon bits and prawns to leek and potato soup? Scrummy.

I always feel 'souped up' after I had soup!

[Curvylady]

Have none of you lot got anything better to discuss than cutlery.

[Maydup]

Probably have curvy but its getting late so what the heck!

[shoota]

Have you got nothing better to do than read it? I know I havn't.....

[maggiebee]

Maidup, got half a dozen butter knives at a car boot sale for next to nothing. Worth a try?

[askyourgran]

Daisy that sounds lovely for a change. ta.

[annadomino]

I see nothing wrong with a harmless discussion, no matter what the content.

[Maydup]

Silly really, I've been looking out in charity shops as well as high street for butter knife and only just thought to look online.

Just got a lovely traditional one
