Five surgeons in a conference bar are discussing who
 makes the best patients to operate on.

The first surgeon says, “I like to
 see accountants on my operating table, because when you open them up, everything inside is numbered.”

The second responds, “Yeah, but you
 should try electricians! Everything inside them is color
 coded.”

The third surgeon says, “No, I really
 think librarians are the best, everything inside them is in alphabetical order.”

The fourth surgeon chimes in: “You
 know, I like construction workers…those guys always understand when you have a few parts left over.”

Then the fifth surgeon shut 
them all up when he observed: “You’re all wrong. Politicians are by far the easiest to operate on.
 They have no guts, no heart, no balls, no brains and
 no spine, and the head and the ass are interchangeable.

Some of the best recipes seems to come from experimenting with the things you actually have available than trying to follow an established formula. This soup came from just this. I wasn’t feeling too well recently, not really feeling like eating and certainly not cooking. I looked around the kitchen to see what was available. I found: a courgette, some carrots, a leak and a sweat potato.

I pealed all, chopped into small pieces, boiled water, added a pinch of salt, put them all together and it turned out to be just what my system needed. The proportions I use are:
1 Courgette (aka Zucchini)
6 Carrots Medium size
1 Leak
1 Sweat potato

Pinch of Salt…you can always add but you can’t take away.

Add all the vegetables to a pot and cover with water. Once you have brought the water to boiled, you can cook for between 20 to 30 minutes on a lower fire.

I like my soup with chunks of vegetables, although you may want to zip through a machine.

So…as I suggested some weeks ago, we have been working hard to get the website www.ConstruçãoSustentável.pt up and running…we did actually have it on line for the original book launch on the 8th November last year. However, I had to decide on a different strategy for now…and now, at the beginning of the year, the first videocasts and podcasts are online…as you can see below…

The way I have posted the podcasts is not the final. However, as we only have three podcasts, there is no point opting for any other option.

And I know from the first three podcasts (and I mainly mean video recordings) I know that there is loads of room for improvement. This will come gradually.

The next filming session will be on the 23rd January which will be published in February….so see you soon…
