Title: In a German Pension
Description: Bread soup was placed upon the table.  Ah, said the Herr Rat, leaning upon the table as he peered into the tureen, that is what I need.  My 'magen' has not been in order for several days.  Bread soup, and just the right consistency.  I am a good cook myself - he turned to me.
