“This lentil soup is so good one nurse has eaten it for lunch every workday for 17 years”: the lentil soup referred to in this lead article in the Sunday, March 8, 2020, food section of the Washington Post, is Crescent’s Greek Lentil Soup with Spinach and Lemon, from the Dairy Hollow House Soup & Bread.
Both she and Reid Branson, the Seattle nurse-supervisor so loyal to this soup, are featured in the story, beautifully written by Joe Yonan.
