At last, I have woken up from my long slumber... To commemorate this occasion, I thought I'd depart a bit from my usually DRY writing and tell you a bit about Kevin and my attempt at making soup!
Yes, lame pun aside, making the soup was quite the experience. All the soup recipes we found online pretty much all agreed on a couple things: 1) Soup takes a lot a lot of time and 2) Soup requires a lot a lot of flavor. So, you could say, that it really tested our patience and pushed us to be more BOLD.
For our soup recipe, as with, sadly enough, all of our recipes, we basically just threw everything we could into it and prayed for it to work. Look at all the stuff we stuffed into the pot:
I personally believe that the hard part was the cutting and the preparation... After that, it was all... well... waiting... a lot of waiting...
The second challenge after the waiting part was the seasoning part. The problem with all those great things we put in was that they have no strong taste by themselves. And, since soup is more than half water, without the proper seasoning, it would basically only taste like watered down veggies... ick... So, we nuked it with this:
Yum! = DAnd with that, hold an hour, and BAM! We had soup!

I would like to add that George did an excellent job with the soup, as after cutting, I cut out to play frisbee. Thanks also go out to timely intervention from Tori as well in providing us broth. We didn't have explicit directions for soup, and there's a good chance that soup can end up tasting like nothing. So against those odds, I was very impressed.
