Cup-a-Soup. Cream of chicken. I was going to go for one of those Asian knock offs of Pot Noodle but its one of those days that needs authenticity. Lovely!

That's uncanny, I had a noodle bowl with added bok choy, onion, cilantro and a sliced Scotch egg..... I have to use these powers for good!

I was having a rubbish day as I wanted to take the afternoon off to go and watch a film but some conceited, uncooperative, narsasistic twollop has decided that we needed to wait in for some apparatchik from down south, so I thought of the soothing qualities of Cup-a-Soup. :thumbup:

I am afraid I must confess to a Teen Burger Combo today.

Why do they keep issuing coupons? It's a conspiracy.

Is it just me or does anyone else think the names A&W gives to their burgers seem rather creepy?

Either creepy or possibly double entendres and innuendos relating to a threesome...

Mr. Saville would have been proud...

The only one I really like is the Uncle Burger, all the others are made out of rodeo bulls.

Chicks, booze and drugs aren't rockn' roll but a nice warming Cup-a-Soup is brilliant. Kids, don't listen to Mick Jagger or The Marshall Tucker Band, open your sachet and pour in some boiling water.

Empty soup into your mug. Add 3/4 cup of BOILING water, let stand for a minute. Enjoy.

You forgot to stir furiously to prevent the sachet contents from fusing themselves to the bottom of the mug.

Saw the picture in your earlier post and still don't understand :blink:

Definitely the first time I have seen that ingredient!

Found a splendid Caribbean café in the Thornhill area for lunch today- and only $7 for a plate piled high.

:thumbsup:

Now change hands and carry on doing that! ;)

Rather a nice Italian in Unionville today for a work lunch. Excellent antipasti, arugula and pecan salad, fusilli with very tender beef, tartufo for dessert. And the boss paid. Hurrah!

Boss paid lunches always taste best.
