On a bad day I will 1) open a can Campbell's of cream of mushroom soup, 2) mix with an equal amount of milk in a 1 1/2 quart Corningware French White round casserole, 3) cover and microwave on half-power, giving it a stir-and-taste until it's hot, and 4) taking it out of the microwave with a kitchen towel, sitting down and putting in on my lap, and go to it until the dish is empty. Never fails to work.
When I was a kid my Mom would make a Polish milk & dumpling soup. Finally found a recipe online for Zacierki
and I'll probably make it this winter.
