Oh Soup, Thy Splendour Is an Ode to Creationism
I hope all you Americans out there had a nice thanksgiving. I am thankful for knowing you guys. And for the non-Americans too, of course. I’m no racialist.
I am done with the pictures for the christmas card. I still have to put it all together at work, so it won’t be completed for a while yet. But I am quite pleased with the pictures. I think they will make you smile. They certainly make me smile. I wish I could just post them now. Or the videos I made. I am excited like a little boy on christmas eve. Sharing is almost as good as receiving. Almost. Because you know, I still want a million dollars.
So keep sending me your addresses if you want a card. And if you should want to send me a card back then my address is still here for all prying eyes to see.
On a sadder note, we are now all out of soup. Sniffle. If I could have my way I’d eat soup for dinner every day. Hmm, that rhymes. I should write a poem about soup.

Gobble, gobble! I’m stuffed full of turkey. We had a nice Thanksgiving on Thursday at my parents’ house.
Our goatsies say “Hi & baaaa” to you, Plume. The weather has been nice, so after work I spent some time with them and my husband spent time with them tonight. They really aren’t spoiled, just well loved.
Do you make soup, Plume? We make vegetable/beef soup all the time in the winter. I like cheesy potato soup, too. My husband loves chili soup.
PS: you sound good. Like almost really happy! Yay, Plume!

Don’t look at meeee!! I’m fat as a house. I’ve never eaten so much food in such a long time. I like turkey but only once a year. I’m basically a vegetarian. Also, I like the idea of sending us humble folk homemade Christmas cards. And as always, we shall send you one in return.

Deb – Gobble! I’m glad you had a nice thanksgiving. Remember to give thanks for that next year!
I do make soup myself, but only the very simple “cuppa soup” kind of things. Or a stock cube in a cup of water. I can’t make a big production like my mother’s soup. I shall have to learn some day.
I’m still planning to go to the christmas party yes. Must be next weekend, if I don’t have my dates mixed up. I’m not sure if Nina will be invited in, but if not then maybe I can sneak her in somehow. You know how at some parties there’s a “children’s table” or so? Maybe I could set up an “animal table” and let all the animals join the party. Of course I’d be in a dilemma then, what table should I sit at? I’d probably feel most at home with the animals. But I shall try to enjoy the human company too. I might wear a lampshade, but don’t count on me dancing!
And yes, flour balls sound better in Danish. I guess “flour balls” isn’t really an English phrase. It’s just a literal translation of the danish word “melboller”. I didn’t know what they were called in English so I just made it up. Danglish, you could say.
Luis – Time to go to the gym, eh? Hehe. “Humble folk”? You make me feel like I am some sort of nobleman and you’re all peasants hah. Which reminds me of Monty Python. “Help, help, I’m being repressed”. My favourite line.
