soop's kitchen

My pleasure thatbags. No good, got to grab my bus pass and go

Blinking eck - I go out for a bit and miss all this excitement. So Soop and bags were going, but then due to popular demand, came back. OK then and I'm glad about that, as I would have missed both of you.

Thanks, lizg, what wonderful toast that bread makes [yum emoticon].

Good morning everyone - I need coffee desperately as am off to town to try and buy a dress for Godson's wedding; my least favourite occupation. What a beautiful cat thatbags I have brought some homemade bread for toast if you would like it, or perhaps you would prefer to put it with the soup. Have a pleasant day.

Elegran They might only be virtual calories in Soops kitchen. There are too many tasty real ones in mine.

I have resisted, although my stomach is rumbling nicely. I am glad I did not read about the lemon drizzle cake earlier. It's only 8 hrs to breakfast.
Night all.

I have made a huge pot of HM SOUP but will save it for tomorrow. Think it is time to head home and let Soop get her beauty sleep

I hope the walls don't give way. It is getting crowded.

Hello, room for one more?? I heard mention of cake! Lovely to be here and in such good company, thanks for opening your kitchen to such a motley crew soop have some as a thank you and

So glad you and Rory have opened up your kitchen soop. The delicious smells of coffee and cake drew me in and it is so lovely and relaxed here. In winter we will be able to warm ourselves by the Aga.

Just popping back soop with six freshly laid eggs from the pesky hens!
I thought you and the delicious Mr soop might like them for breakfast.

Oh go on then, I'll have a quick and a slice of coffee and walnut cake please, it's my favourite too.

How nice and cosy by the Arga I think I'll bring a nice comfy beanbag so i can lie back and have 40 winks,what a fabulous idea soop always the person to make us feel at home and welcome.

Need to tend to the OH's needs (no, not that sort!) as he's looking lean and hungry - time to get cooking in the real world, ttfn

I'll make a fruit cake, and bring a large tea pot. Can I bring 2 dogs - maybe I'll leave them at home. They just aren't very relaxed around cats..... Yes, they can stay home

Good luck with the jam and jelly ogm
And good to see you thatbags
Definitely cause for this evening

Here you are, soop - a bottle of the best malt, for your wee drams when the sun is over the yardarm. We shall raise our glasses to you, won't we folks?

A measure of your popularity Soop! I've just 'clocked back on' and your post is on page FOUR! Brilliant! I was technologically challenged and in a right 2 & 8 (about the facebook thingy).
I shall need a strong coffee in the morning have to 'stage' jam and jelly entered in Hort Soc show tomorrow. If I put a doily under each pot, will that do?

I had a long list of seemingly important "to-do's" for today. Thanks to you lot I've done nuffink. Mr soop doesn't seem to mind. He's thrilled that we're all back together. A very good place to be. Having said that, it's well past time to wash the breakfast dishes, make the bed, hoover the carpet and other dreary tasks. No worries...I shall be back sometime tomorrow. Thank you for a very special day.

anno Rory says...no worries. He's on a pheromone high.
baubles Please blow your own trumpet. The louder the better. I'm just so THANKFUL that you lot knocked some sense into my scatty head. What's more, I'm chuffed to bits that thatbags bird is back in the flock.
Now then, what is it I should be doing...Ariadne perhaps just a wee dram to celebrate.
Any of you collared my rag rug?

I do a mean lemon drizzle (blowing own trumpet emoticon)

Do help yourselves.

Leaving work early, still hospital visiting, if you're all still here later I'll join you.

Cake's ready and all sliced up - help yourselves!

Oooh, here I am! Coffee and walnut cake for me, please. How lovely to know that we still have dear soop!

(Psssst everyone! I do have a nice bottle of wee drops for her, from us. We can have a cheer too? Just say. She'll be too busy to notice my whispers.)

Everybody's favourite cake is in limitless supply, greatnan. Or you can have your favourite ice-cream if you prefer.

Or both

Did you mention home-made flapjacks. Now, there's an offer I can't refuse.

The exercise bike has developed a loud clonk. I have no idea how to fix it. May need to wait for advice from somebody in the know. In the meantime, I shall enjoy our picnic.
