Soup anyone?

By -
One of these things is not like the others,
One of these things just doesn't belong,
Can you tell which thing is not like the others
By the time I finish my song?

Our local paper Star Tribune had an article today on soups.
They listed four soup names.
Cousin K said, Hey go grab the Strib Taste section and tell me which soup name makes you LOL...

Thai Hot-And-Sour Soup

Beef Stroganoff Soup

Chicken Chipotle Soup

Cock-A-Leekie Soup

Yep, you read that right.

I think I just might start saying that in my everyday lexicon.

"I was driving to work today and some Cock-A-Leekie pulled out in front of me!"

"That movie was really good, but what a Cock-A-Leekie ending!"

See how fun that is!

So what kind of soup is that? I am really tempted to make a dirty double entendre here, but I won't.

I know what a leekie is (I think), but I'm not sure what the other half of the soup is made of...

So now with Christmas almost upon us, I wanted to take the last few days to make some Christmas Crafts.

A Book and A Giveaway

As I said I would be doing in my 7 Resolutions, I am reading a book a week. This past week I read the book Precious, based on the Novel Push by Sapphire. I'm sure most of you have heard about the movie based on the novel. The book club that I belong to is reading this book and now that I read it, I am going to give it away. The book was very eye opening, raw. You really don't want to believe that children have to live like this, that this is reality for many children\teens. Incest, rape, abuse, lack of education, lack of everything! I know this stuff happens, but you don't want to believe it. I work at a Middle School, and I look around and wonder what happens to some of these kids when they go home. My heart breaks. It's not an easy read by any means, but it will make you think and feel. If you would like this book just leave me a comment. I'll post a winner on Feb. 1.
