The Making of Stone Soup.
He was so disappointed to miss out that I suggested we make it at home. Unfortunately, this particular recipe is not part of my usual repertoire. I knew it had something to do with rocks and something to do with a story but that was the extent of my know-how. (Despite Joe's cryptic impressions of his days at school, he is perpetually frustrated with my lack of knowledge on subjects such as stone soup.)
So I Google-ed it and found a selection of recipes. Thank you Internet! You have saved my credibility for another day.
It does indeed involve a rock. And it does indeed have a lovely Thanksgiving story (though I'm still fuzzy on those details). The best part was that Joe Frank ate the healthiest meal he's had in a week, all because he cooked it himself.
