It was chilly and overcast yesterday, perfect for soup. But then, isn't everyday?
I thought I'd try a video, the soup always steams so much photos often seem blurred.
I have been finding it rather strange being here. I'm new, even though I'm not. I had a decade-long absence, I had a traumatic brain injury, I got older. I'm not the person I was when I started, which isn't unusual, but I didn't become this person along the way with those of you I followed from the start. I don't know your story for the past decade. I show up, life has moved on and I feel... odd. My life has been the square peg fitting into the round hole, but this is a different odd. Perhaps I'm drawn back in time, before smartphones, when I used my Mac exclusively, before I got dragged into Facebook because nearly everyone I knew here migrated there. Maybe because I dumped Facebook three years ago and spend very little time with Instagram, this has sort of become a return to the 2000s, leaving me feeling a little disoriented. Different from how I would feel if I had stayed all along? Anyway, I feel a bit like a stranger in a strange land, just showing up and I forgot to bring the wine.
So, I post food photos. I think I was more interesting once, but that could be memory making me more than I was.

I, for one, am very happy that you and I found each others blogs again. Totally enjoy communicating with you. Love your writing, your cooking, your photographs and learning more.
You and I are new to each other, though I started blogging long ago. Now though, the readers are different, many of the originals having left us, and it's an interesting journey to keep meeting new people. I know you're about much more than food, nice though that is, and I hope you'll unfold more of your current world as we get acquainted.
Awww, thanks Lori. The fact that you are still here to connect with again is wonderful. I think I just feel a little disoriented, like I stepped back in time somehow!
Boud, I didn't think about how many people you have seen come and go over time. This isn't static. I guess in my mind I think of it not changing.
It is your blog, you can write whatever you want. You should feel comfortable here, we are just friends visiting:) Life is always changing.
I'm in a state go flux, which leaves me feeling slightly lost. Much of what I feel here is nostalgia. Nostalgia is fine as long as one doesn't live there!
