One person shares a recipe, and guides the other through making it. While I harvested kales and other leafy greens in autumnal Rotterdam, the Netherlands, Louisa sliced carrots in springy Melbourne, Australia. She also prepared this meal at the end of the day, while I was still gathering myself after a rough night of sleep.</span>

-In the couple of weeks where summer turns into fall, and spring into summer on the other end, we do sometimes find some overlap in our days. Similar weather, some sun, some rain, overall more dreary on this end with shorter days. The few late raspberries that I was able to pick due to a bit of late September warmth, are no match by far for the handfuls of berries and luscious plums and peaches that are already in season over there. Peaches! Oh how I'd love to have a peach tree.</span>

When Inge suggested cooking together I instantly thought of this soup because it can easily be vegan if you use regular pasta instead of ravioli, and it could be a nice healthy breakfast too.</span>

 The ravioli I usually use are small and take about five or six minutes to cook. I usually put about ten or twelve pieces in the pot not long after I have put the vegetables in. This time however I didn't have any ravioli in the house so I put some short pieces of angel hair pasta in instead. This takes only two minutes to cook so I waited until the hardest vegetable--the carrot--was just about to be cooked through before I put a small handful in. Really this was not long into the cooking at all, just about three or four minutes because I like the vegetables to stay fresh tasting and not overcooked or mushy. When all was cooked just the way I like it I tipped the soup into a large bowl, topped it with the parsley and a dribble of olive oil and set it on the table.</span><span class="purple"> The dribble of olive oil! This is one of the first things Louisa taught me when I started joining them for dinners. Dipping good fresh bread, or slightly toasted bread, in a savory olive oil is still an addition to my own soups and stews that makes me feel connected to her while I eat.

-In our house we all eat different foods for dinner. Usually my partner has some kind of protein shake and my daughter who is still very fussy about food likes something very plain and I like to eat something with lots of vegetables or lentils. So when we sat down to eat with Inge I was the only one eating the soup I had made. I set the phone in the glass at the head of the table so she could see all of us and so that we could all see her. It's not the same as having her here in person with us. We can't sit close, give each other hugs, check out each other's self-done haircuts and refashioned clothes. But it's nice to be able to chat about our lives together, to hear what's going on here and there, what matters and what doesn't. I slurp up my vegetables and pasta soup and she does the same.
