For this I break my LJ silence?
The soup in the cafeteria today was "Vegetarian Spring Asparagus Leek."

Twitter cleaner
First, a preface to those of you who use LoudTwitter: it's not you in particular, it's the cumulative effect.

Quickie kitchen discovery
Curry powder and allspice added to macaroni and cheese is shockingly good.
