Fly In the Soup

Listen, can you hear it your taste buds losing interest? A buzzing in the air black-winged hoverers flit and fly across the kitchenette drawn in by the smell of tantalizing flavors. Too hot for ovens to be on too lazy for the frying pan to warm a chilled gazpacho from the fridge cucumber, onion, pepper, jalapeno, garliced olive oil, lime juice, balsamic and a floating entourage of fly in the soup. "Gazpacho or Andalusian gazpacho is a cold soup made of raw, blended vegetables. A classic of Spanish cuisine, it originated in the southern region of Andalusia. Gazpacho is widely eaten in Spain and Portugal, particularly during hot summers, as it is refreshing and cool". Wikipedia
