This soup is definitely only to be eaten with someone you are convinced is your life-long partner. It is a "slurpy soup"! Totally delicious and remarkably filling.

You're recipe is the first on my next list to try.
Just had to tell you about my first date @ 16. My beloved dad, now in heaven, decided that an afternoon matinee would be okay. I was dropped off at the cinema and allowed entry as soon as the poor boy had passed intensive scrutiny. Relaxing into our chairs I just happened to turn around, only to find my dad and little sis two rows behind me, smiling broadly popcorn in hand.
Even though I was livid at the time it has become one of my treasured memories.
I love these kinds of memories. Aren't we lucky to have had Dads that loved us so much!
First dates - aaaah that brings back memories of movies and the Spur!! Love the soup though - both the flavours and colours.

Your fish soup sounds very interesting!
But I think I might have a tough time convincing TheHusband to try it - he's not a big fish lover...
