My boys' appetites seem unbounded. Today they had:
Breakfast: oatmeal with maple syrup (Basil likes his with butter. Anselm wants no butter), milk,black plums
Second Breakfast: Toast with butter, Milk
Lunch: Norwegian sardines on toast, tangerines, milk
Afternoon snack: Semifreddi baguette, milk, See's chocolate coin (1 each)
Supper: roasted tomato soup (Anslem helped me make it. He also sharpened my knives.), milk, baguette
ROASTED TOMATO SOUP (with links to recommended ingredients)
2 lbs San Marzano Tomatoes, washed,peeled, and halved (long ways)
5-8 sliced cloves garlic (It depends on how big they are, doesn't it?)
1 onion sliced
1 cup vegetable broth, chicken broth, or beef broth
A little olive oil
1. Put the tomato halves face down in lightly oiled glass pans, cover with sliced onion and garlic, and bake for 20 minutes at 400 F (You pre-heated, didn't you?)
2. Remove from oven and dump all the contents of the pans into an blender (it is okay if there is more than will fit in your blender,you can blend the remainder after this first batch.), and totally liquify the tomatoes, onion, and garlic.
3. Pour all the liquified goodness into a saucepan.
5. Add broth, and while stirring, heat to desried temperature.
6. Pour into blue and white porcelain rice bowls. (Because red, white and blue look good together. Just ask any of a couple of dozen countries.)
7. Spoon one tsp of sour cream into each bowl.
8. Enjoy.

Watch out, eating machines turn into growing machines. But then again, you know that Dad.
My Mother taught me to love sardine sandwiches. Everyone else in my family thinks I'm nuts. I ignore them, of course.
Only the most noble persons eat sardines. Thats why the two biggest brands are Crown Prince and King Oscar.
Of course!
