busy, busy, busy… spent the morning emptying the bedroom for painting and preparing chicken soup…

friends arrived and two of us went off to do some Craft Show shopping while one stayed behind to do the painting;-)…

four hours later we came home and the room was done… it was already dark by the time I took photos so I am excited to see it in the light of day… the colour is a very pale mauve/pink… or, maybe it will just look like it has been freshened up…

made dumplings to go with the soup, pulled together a Caesar salad and we had supper… George would have called this stoup… a cross between stew and soup…

lovely to have friends over for dinner… been a long time…

on our way home from work last night we stopped at Safeway and picked up the ingredients for Souper Thursday… my turn… found the recipe on Pinterest and made it without time to test…

  
interesting experience today as I brought the ingredients to the office, put them into the crockpot, and let it do its thing… usually I spend the evening preparing the parts and often getting the soup ready for the next day and then reheat it at the office…

I doubled the recipe and in the process may have put in an excessive amount of tortellini… so we ended up with stoup… a cross between soup and stew… it was good… and easy… certainly the simplest soup I’ve made…

  
been very happy with the irises I took into the office on Monday… last couple of blooms opened up this morning…

  
all in all a good day…
