It's a miracle!

I was just out in my yard when-- get this!-- C brought my pot back. Clean.

The return was followed up with the question, "You don't happen to have a can of tomato soup, do you?" I said, no, we don't eat much tomato soup in the spring.

It's only now that I wonder whether answering in the affirmative would have meant also reloaning him my pot.

And you call me a food snob?! What, is tomato soup in the spring like wearing white pumps after labor day?

Wouldn't be caught dead with a tureen of the red stuff during ASPARAGUS season.

I could go on.

Go on if you must, but I have no desire for tomato soup in the spring. You can eat it all damn summer if you want to and I won't say a word. I don't like soup when it's warm anymore than I like salad in winter.
