I saw the new and improved Kick-Start diet on TV last night. It was a featured story on Today Tonight , but I wasn't paying a lot of attention, I did notice that it featured a lot of soup , much like the original kick-start diet. So this morning I got onto Google and found the recipe for the soup. Here it is:-> 3 tomatoes 2 large cans of crushed tomatoes 2 cans of liquid stock, either beef, chicken or vegetable (stock comes in cans? what size cans?) 2 cups water 1 packet dry vegetable soup powder or French Onion soup powder 1 bunch spring onions 1 bunch celery 2 cups green beans 3 green capsicums 1kg carrots 2 stock cubes, either beef, chicken or vegetable chop all vegetables into small pieces, add to the pot with everything else, rapid boil for two minutes, then simmer until vegetables are tender. Makes enough for one person for two days. Eat as much as you want, whenever you want, during the day. Instead of your usual foods of course. (This rem
Say things like, "Mm hmm" and "uh-huh" and "yep" for a minute on your end of a "conversation."
ReplyDeleteOk, that's my guess.
That, or this is a smarty-pants riddle and you would say we are not using letters when we speak, but that letters only somewhat approximately represent speech sounds. :)
It's a conundrum for sure.
ReplyDeleteHappy Elf Mom; sorry, that's not it.
ReplyDeleteIt is a smarty-pants riddle though. Sort of.
Delores; I was surprised when I found out.
I give up.
ReplyDeleteMaybe if they spoke Welsh....?

lol, absolutely no idea lol.
ReplyDeleteI'll not give it away but perhaps you got this from reading A Wanted Man which I read recently. Jack Reacher showed how it could be done at the end of the book. Am I right?
ReplyDeleteElephant's Child; giving up so soon?
ReplyDeleteYou're as bad as me.
Kath Lockett; no Welsh involved.
The Wicked Writer; I'll tell you then. In a minute.
Mimsie; I knew you'd know.
The answer is......count out loud from one to one hundred, it should take you about a minute and you won't need the letter A until you get to one hundred And one.
I've no idea, but you have some clever responses here! :-)

Pearl; the answer is the last sentence in the comment above you.
ReplyDeleteGroan. Clever, and now I feel inadequate. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteCounting is not speaking though.
ReplyDeleteElephant's Child; I did too, all the way through the book as I tried to figure out how that was possible.
ReplyDeletemm; true, but it is a minute of words without the letter A.
Welcome to drifting.
Re mm's comment. Of course counting is speaking unless you are doning it silently on your fingers perhaps. lol
ReplyDeleteMimsie; you're right. I suspect mm was referring to proper conversation.
