[pepper-mill-crank-nut soup] Alternate title: Ways Not to Impress People in the Kitchen.

Yes, I was making some soup for a friend, grinding some pepper in when the nut that holds the crank on the pepper mill fell off and fell into the soup. It was a lentil soup, so totally opaque. I tried dredging it with a spoon and eventually did retrieve the nut. My friend didn't seem to care all that much, but the thought of either of us breaking a tooth or passing it later was not something I wanted to entertain.

I wanted to draw a longer cartoon of the whole sequence, but since that'd be at least 6 panels, I decided to just do a quick version of the essential part.

The soup was actually quite good. images/Drawings/Sketches/pepper.png
