Making your own soup at home, in this case tomato soup, with lumps.
Homemade soup is invariably far tastier than anything you can buy in the shops. You've bought the individual ingredients, so you know exactly what is in it; and it can work out cheaper than tins and tubs of supermarket soup.
At this gloomy time of year of shorter days and longer nights, when the clocks go back and we all feel the need to crawl into a corner and hibernate until Spring, a good bowl of soup, one you've made yourself, can beat those Winter Blues.
So join Ed has he fumbles around the kitchen, experimenting with a bit of this and a bit of that, deploys The Blitzer, and ends up with a very tasty cream of tomato soup that would rival anything you could ever buy.
