No Soup for You

On the last full day in Paris, the group went for a walk in Jardin Botanique de Paris. This is  collection of four botanical gardens maintained by the city of Paris.    They spent time in several hot houses and strolled through the neighborhoods.

At lunch time, Debbie felt that Greg may have fallen under the charm of a waitress.  She was an older lady that lured him into a restaurant by answering “No Problem, no problem” to any question or statement along with a smile and frantic head nodding.  Debbie asked if vegetable soup was available and pointed to the soups.  The waitress said “Sure, no problem – Vegetables”  with violent head nodding.  Everyone’s meal came except for Debbie’s but the waitress looked at her and said “Vegetables!”.  Eventually “The Vegetables” arrived.   According the eye witnesses, Debbie’s mouth fell open and she half rose out of her seat saying “this is not soup!”.  “Yes” replied the waitress ” No problem, vegetable, No Soup! Not Winter no soup”.  Debbie wished that these revelations had occurred before she got the food and perhaps the waitress had looked at what Debbie was pointing to on the menu.  Debbie ‘s vegetable soup was a plate with buttered noodles, rice, spinach and green beans.   (Really? Spinach and green beans? Technically, noodles and rice are not vegetables). Joyce took pity on Debbie and traded her some spinach for potatoes.

Debbie was awarded the Adventure Award for the day through no fault of her own.  Debbie consoled herself  by buying a chocolate croissant on the way home.

  1. Are you sure you did not make a wrong turn and end up in Middle Earth.. that poet statue looks suspiciously like Gandalf. Debbie, I am jealous of how you are destroying us all in this weeks FitBit Challenge

    1. It does look like Gandalf. I fall in bed every night tired. This is probably the only time that I might win the fitbit challenge.

  2. We have this early purple flowers popping up here in Oregon! I love those lobster claw flowers, they remind me of key west.
    They vegatable plate is a sore excuse for a vegatable plate. I would have said at least 75% of my plate should be vegetable. sorry you didn’t get soup but I’m glad you got a chocolate croissant 😄
