Even as a novice I had the bad habit of not measuring what I used and not
writing it down -- going by feel.  Unfortunately, that has lead to a lot of
really good lost recipes (I never can recreate the same blend twice :-(  ). 
But that also means that my soups never taste quite the same twice in a row.
