Hello,
Pumpkin soup is in the pot. It was to
be pumpkin lentil soup, but it changed to split pea when the bag in the
cupboard had peas rather than lentils in it. Substitutions are a solid creed in
my life. We will learn if it was a good thing or not. The rest of the
ingredients are the same as the recipe, except that the ground ginger jar would
not yield the required amount. Even though the crystal ginger is here it seemed
just a bit too far to the side. There could have been more of the ingredients
if the idea had occurred sooner. As it was, I saw the pie pumpkin sitting
decoratively in its spot and decided “the time had come” for it to serve
another purpose.
Cutting this pumpkin was a job. Either
the knives need sharpening again or pumpkin skin is tough. The seeds are saved,
but I will leave them for Leroy as he likes them much better than I do.
If you have a New year resolution
about exercise, I have read a book called Younger Next Year : the exercise
program by Chris Crowley. It could help you reach your goal of moving more and
becoming stronger and more flexible. I would recommend it for anyone who feels that
urge to do something to change how they feel for the better. It certainly has
inspired me. I who never write fan mail almost want to write the author and
tell him how much I liked it.
