Cabbage Tomato Soup, with Egg
Clearly, the Cabbage Tomato Soup is one soup I cook quite often. Why not...come Fall or into the colder winter months when most people keep their grills and warm up at home with a soothing comfort soup.
A little spice and garnish. Pinch of curry powder and turmeric powder, if you wish, while you cook the soup; or pinch of freshly ground black pepper. This time, I did it without dried herbs of oregano and basil and used coarsely chopped fresh cilantro leaves instead.
I know a lot of you can have this as a meal on its own, just like myself. However, to get a little protein (balanced nutrition) out of the cabbage and tomatoes, I usually add a hard-boil egg. How I enjoy simplicity at its best.
What do you think of embroided table linen? You know how I hated "lacey" stuff when I was much much younger. It feels SO OLD-FASHIONED, so off-beat. But now that I am not young, I am beginning to see some beauty in such table linen. They can actually be quaint and pretty gorgeous? ^o^

Helping a friend...feedback appreciated
My friend may have a supply of such embroided table linen for sale (above is the sample).
(1) Would you buy it for your food blogging clicks, or maybe a set of four or more for casual entertaining;
(2) How much would you be willing pay? Similar products in Amazon - let's say a 33"x33" embroided table linen is priced at about US$25.
Your feedback will be useful to help her realistically price her product items in future. Thanks in advance for your help :)
