tomato soup

i'd like winter to end soon so i can stop drinking soup. it burns my throat and takes ages to cool. or, when it cools it cools too fast to drink it while it's nice and warm.

once, when we used to live out in the county (and i was very little) my dad made chicken noodle soup. aside from remembering that i hated the taste of it (and told him i preferred campbell's), i remember the chicken fat floating to the surface of the pot.

there's a style of illustration, used primarily in 50s comic books (maybe only MAD magazine?) called 'chicken fat' where in each panel is basically as many little visual gags the artist can fit in.
