    I would go a thick veggie soup, chunky veg or something similar with chopsticks, and any noodly soup, and why the heck wouldnt you just pick the bowl up and drink tomato soup if you only had chopsticks, or make a bread and tomato soup, or just break up chunks of fresh bread into the soup and chopstick that. Sometimes a bit of lateral thinking is all that is needed.

    Bread and water can so easily become tea and toast

    Ed, I think the OP left out something that brings the thread into focus. He didn't actually have a bowl for his soup but it was in a 1" diameter cylinder that was about 12" in height! And it had a razor edge around the top of the cylinder and he was wearing a white tuxedo with tails.

    I'm with you! I only have phô about every other week, though.

    It's the same when you are stupid.

    Somehow, the idea of sucking buttermilk through a straw is much more appealing to me.

    The ONE thing I miss about Houston, TX is the Vietnamese area. Some of the best restaurants in the US.

    Interesting.

    The only thing I miss about Houston is Tom's razor stash.
