Today's small thought Today, I made a vegetable soup. I put beans, a cabbage, onions, and a kind of chinese leaves. Because I used a red (it's actually purple) cabbage, the soup became purple colour which looked wired somehow as food. Then, I started thinking if they are originally purple, or it is an artificial colour. I mean, why do the colour come off? Why boiled beans don't make water green?? I looked the soup again, thought about it a second. It looked beautiful in a way, though. It was more an art, like wine.

Today's Small Thought

Today, I made a vegetable soup. I put beans, a cabbage, onions, and a kind of chinese leaves. Because I used a red (it's actually purple) cabbage, the soup became purple colour which looked weird somehow as a food. Then, I started thinking if they are were originally purple, or it is if it was an artificial colour. I mean, why did the colour come off? Why do boiled beans don't not make the water green?? I looked at the soup again, thought about it for a second. It looked beautiful in a way, though. It was more like an art, like wine.
