One of my favorite fragrances besides lilac.
I love lilac, but I don't have a plant here. Every time I see it in the nursery it's so expensive I haven't been able to justify buying it!
Sounds good, as with coffee it's still to hot for soup also, here. What kind of soup are you having?
Sweet potato. What I tend to do is cook soup in a large batch and then freeze it in individual meal portions, then when I want some for lunch I go rummage and see what I can find in the freezer. The aim is to have healthy meals on hand rather than reaching for junk food, and sometimes it even works...

That's really a good idea and a real problem for me. I realize that is why i resort to junk food. What's your favorite soup. I think i have too many

Too many to choose from. It depends on the mood!

I tend to mix it up a bit depending on the season and what I feel like. If I were making soup today I'd probably choose something like this:


One thing I really don't like, even though in theory it would be a good healthy choice, is mushroom soup. I love mushrooms, but not in soup!

I've never had lentil anything on purpose, lol. My choices would be potato, bean with bacon or clam chowder, the white. Tell me if the red is any good?

At least those are relatively small creatures. Ever had a dalmatian dropped on your head?

My majestic 22 lb Siamese cat who had a 15” tail jumped on my head and elsewhere several times. I love that cat.

I've never eaten clam chowder (not being one who eats shellfish on purpose), so... can't help you there! I love lentils. Cooked well they're delicious, healthy and cheap. I admit that many westerners don't seem to know what to do with them.
You work and you cook from scratch, wow!
To be fair, my husband (who works fewer hours than I do) does most of the cooking. But that's part of why I tend to cook in bulk and freeze; it means I can do a big cook up on my day off and then make work days easier.

So happy that this cold that's been plaguing me finally seems to be subsiding.

Still have a horrible cough from it. Was actually coughing so much I started to throw up the other day.

Oh dear.. lol.

Waiting for 10 am. Unfortunately I have to take one of mom’s cats in to be put down. He is almost 14 but he is dropping weight at an alarming rate and he is losing control oh his bladder and vomiting. :( I dread this type of thing.
