this evening - after stopping to pick up that pesky stick of butter - randall and i whipped up a vat of tomato orange soup. we didn't strain it through cheesecloth, so it looks a bit chunky (after seeing the picture, randall says it looks like baby food, or maybe he said baby barf?), but let me tell you it was downright delicious. don't let the orange scare you either, it's a really nice touch. oh and there weren't any soda crackers involved, that's actually a lyric from a song i used to love in college.
ps. my camera came back all clean, so naturally the first thing i did was pick it up with soup hands. go team.
pps. i have to wait two weeks for a new lost?! whaat?

i have a confession to make. i haven't left the house today. and although annie sent out a very tempting invite to m83, i'm going to decline and stay in all day.
and now before you go thinking i'm a totally lazy potatocouch (this is a morm vocab word, btw) i should say that while i haven't gone anywhere, my lungs were filled with fresh air when i went to the garage to do laundry, so at least chores were taken care of. also i thought about going downtown to run some errands, but then i remembered it was black friday and that i didn't want to be anywhere that craziness. we played along at a fry's a few years ago, and i don't feel the need to do it ever again.
anyways, on to the old lady collection. this sweatshirt was given to me by grandma. samshrew and i went to visit her a few years ago and she gave it to me because it was too big for her. it's too big for me too, but there's something about it that i love. it's a horrible plain grey sweatshirt with slightly puffy bird embellishments sewn onto it, but i think it's great. mostly because it's super cozy, but partially because it makes me feel sentimental. i call it my sweet oldlady bird sweatshirt and i plan on sitting in it all night long.
