kitchen perils : muffin soup

The other day my dad was looking for something to make soup with. We thought we'd found some pureed pinto beans in the fridge that would make a good stock. So he put together something resembling a tortilla soup. As we ate it we thought this doesn't taste right. It was about three days latter when I realized we'd used the left over bran muffin mix mom left in the fridge for easy muffin making. After realizing it was muffin mix and not beans gone weird the soup didn't seen so bad. Would I make said soup on purpose? Maybe.
