Weather has been rather cool of late. However, I'm happy to say my soup-making skills haven't got too rusty over the last year or so :-)

Also, some of our neighbours seem to have an intermittent sheep. I shall endeavour to post photos sometime next week, as there's little more stereotypically New Zealand than sheep in someone's front yard deep in suburbia. Despite having almost never seen it in nearly three decades.

OMG! I finally felt like I was in NZ, for real, when I was walking to the beach near my house (Lyall Bay at the time) and one of the neighbourhood kids had his pet sheep on a leash and was waiting for the bus*.

Later I saw that kid and his sheep on the beach.

Later yet, I saw the sheep contentedly munching daisies in the front yard of a house a few blocks from mine.

Suburban sheep=awesome.



*To this day I wonder if the sheep was let on the bus.

It appears your neighbors are feeling a little sheepish! *grin*

Grammar is interesting.
Reading this entry to someone else word for word turned out to be interesting. =)
Were you tired when you wrote this?

It's a bit cold in Auckland too, although not nearly as much. Thankfully my developing cold was good enough to wait until just after exams before showing up.

Cold, very tired and busy. And I have at least one typo to fix, thank you.

There's a certain satisfaction one gets from giving someone cold a bowl of warm soup and having them sit down and devour it, punctuated only by the occasional happy mmm-ing noises, then hold up the bowl again for more :-)

Definitely good cold-weather comfort food.

A friend of mine is sick, so I called my Mum for the family recipe for chicken soup. This is the original, people! Everything you've heard about chicken soup - this is it. Handed down through the generations, guranteed to cure anything and everything under the sun, even cancer.
I think I'll sneak some myself.
