POST HOLIDAY SOUP BACKLOG CLEARANCE!

ROYAL REMINDER JUMP-STARTS THE SOUP REVIVAL.....

Loyal readers may have noticed a slight pause in, what has become lovingly known nationally as, 'THE' soup blog. Not just a few dedicated followers, least one, a doctor, has contacted our busy call center (24h/ 365d/ 360o "we are here to support your every soup need") and reminded one of our dedicated volunteer phone operatives of the Soupmaster's commitment to soup heritage, world peace and wise words that calms the nation in these stressful times.

So, like the Dove from Above your hero lowers himself down into your world to deliver this message....

"Loyal subjects and fellow Americans, I have returned from my humble international tour, supporting our boys on their mission to invade Sandiago de Compostbin. I can now safely say "I have walked The Way" (for at least 1/2k, but was cruelly diverted by an inviting 12 euro lunch menu - it taught me about temptation... yum).

Now I'm back, and the blog rolls on like an out of control despot's speech."

(Well done Anne, you are no wussy when it comes to yomping - respect!)

ROAST CELERIAC AND GARLIC SOUP

ROAST RED PEPPER AND SPUD SOUP

I hope Soupee Mr Trellis of Acton notices the subtle tonal change (I stirred the tin).

We at the instituion are very pleased to observe this move away from the 'dirty green'brown' phase of your art. Clearly the new hues of golden yellow and rustic red demonstrate a new sophistication and subtlety in your creativity.

That and just a little bit more effort when going through the Batchelors 'just add water' section at Asda.

Let's hear it for SoupMan!

Dear Elvis,
Thank you for your kind comments.
Does the institution know you are able to communicate with the outside world? (I thought you were still in solitary confinement?)
As to the tonal quality of my creations - the first, you will be pleased to know, is a homage to Anne on the Way. The second is a tonal poem on the theme of not winning a final game.
Keep taking the medication - we'll go for a walk later.
SM.

"OVERHEARDS"

You know that moment when you are lazily strolling down your local high street, or quietly dozing in the library when you catch the wiff of an over heard conversation - just a snippet? I call them "overheards" and have collected them for years.

Here are the latest;

*One woman to another;; "Well, I'm not waxing it!"

*Irate man on mobile; "Until you return the power washer, the divorce will not go through!"

*Giggling girls; "And he ate both!"

*Spray tanned woman;"Well, I had it in my hand this morning".
