22 February

Forget these bath essences, foams or gels that have ingredients such as pepper* or ginseng:

Just slowly add a tin of cream of tomato soup** to your bath as it is running, and, when it is run, and you have lowered yourself into it, luxuriate in the exotic feeling of what being on the hob is like


NB Needless to say, I can't guarantee to have tried this myself, but I'm just waiting for your appreciative comments so that I can deviate from my habitual - and rather tiresome practice - of eating the soup.

The whole affair is perpetuated here, and also here...


End-notes

* NB It is always qualified as 'black pepper' - poor old white pepper has clearly had its day, whatever its uses...

** The brand doesn't matter - you'll take in its healing properties, but not taste it.

What would your advice be on the matter of croutons?

That is a good question, but not one not to be thought of (or answered) separately from that of the use of condiments, or, of course, of the edicts as a whole of the court of Louis XIV, I must say (probably in a later posting, on a quite diferent topic)...

Hum, said Pooh, I neglected, Christopher Robin, to provide a link to that posting.

Never mind, silly old Bear, you can do it now!

Oh, yes, so I can - silly me:
