Making Soup = Not Cooking
D informed me last week, in so many words, that he didn't really enjoy cooking. I think he did this more for shock value than anything else. Yesterday, I came home to a fabulous pea soup D had made. I reminded him that he didn't enjoy cooking, and he said, "It's not cooking. It's making soup." Can someone explain this logic to me?

It's actually very simple. I can do other things while making soup because it sort of makes itself. Once I spend some minimal prep time chopping up things, all I have to do is check up on it every once in a while. I was able to clean, listen to music, work on my computer, and bring the recycling to the curb all while making the soup. "Cooking" involves lots of work.

Also, to be geeky cool, your subject line should be:
Making soup != Cooking
