Does anybody have one? there's tea, dessert and table, but plenty of others if you include ladels and large cooking spoons, some are stainless steel, some plastic, then there is of course the wooden spoon which has both positive (licking cake dough off one when very young) and negative (finishing bottom) associations. My personal favourite is the soup spoon - I cannot have soup with a dessert spoon, my conveyance must have a round receptacle not an oval shaped one - it's probably my only such fad, pretty carefree generally, but I'm very anal when it comes to spooning down my soup, mind you a drop of tinned cream of tomato on a cold night is lovely straight out of a mug, especially with a cheese and/or bread/cracker accompaniement.

So I'm voting for the humble soup spoon. Tell me your favourite spoon and I'll keep count. I'm predicting a 1-0 victory for 'soup'.

Those flat bottomed Chinese soup spoons are strangely satisfying to use.

You could have mentioned Spoonerism's like Betty Swollocks, or my favourite Welsh love spoons carved from a single piece of wood but originally used for soup!

My interpretation too.

I hope you don’t tell your missus this.
