French Onion Soup

Today I cooked my 2nd recipe! I chose to cook french onion soup.
Since I doubled up the quantities, the recipe took nearly double the time, I also chose not to put brandy in it!
In the middle of chopping up the onions my youngest brother, Henry, came back from a camping trip and I got distracted. Chopping and peeling the onions took a long time and I wore sunglasses to stop me from crying, it didn't work! I tried wearing goggles, no more tears! I really felt like Julia Child from the movie 'Julie and Julia', surrounded by piles of chopped onions, and brandishing a large knife!
The onion soup took longer to make than I had anticipated, so we ended up eating it for lunch the next day.
Ratings
Taste: 7
The soup was too sweet for my likings, but the cheese croƻtes were really nice.
Appearance: 7
The soup looked nice, if you are into french onion soup.
Difficulty: 7
The soup isn't actually that difficult to make it is just time consuming.
