I made a flock of soup the other day. I use flock because it did fly everywhere when I blended and it then took roost in a number of different homes. So here is my recipe for a soup of delicious proportions, depending on the portions:
Needs
1 Large Pot
1 Stove Plate, gas or electric (if this isn't available, build a fire)
1 Sharp Knife (bigger, in this case, is better)
1 Chopping Board
1 Blender (in which case electricity is necessary so nevermind about the fire)
1 Large Container
1 Pair of Hands, minimum seven fingers total (opposable thumbs a necessity)
1 Constant Feeling of Love
Ingredients (NB: Quantities vary according to your own particular taste - experiment!)
Onions
Garlic
Butternut
Potatoes
Carrots
Ginger
Chilli
Butter
Oil (Olive preferably)
Water
Method
1. Using Pair of Hands, place Large Pot onto Stove Plate and fill about halfway with Water. Put generous amount of Butter and less generous amounts of Oil into Large Pot. Turn Stove Plate onto medium heat
2. Using Pair of Hands, Sharp Knife and Chopping Board, skin the Onions and Garlic. With Carrots, Potatoes, Butternut, Ginger and Water, you can leave the skin on. Its healthier and adds to the flavour.
3. Using the afore mentioned tools, fine chop the Ginger with Constant Feeling of Love (its a deep root so more flavour is released if its open)
4. Again with the same tools, chop everything else into fair size chunks with Constant Feeling of Love
5. Chuck it all into Large Pot and place lid on. Say, "Thank you."
6. Allow to simmer for 2-3 hours.
INTERVAL
During
this period you may want to relax and read a book. Perhaps a
meditation is in order. Or better yet, use your valuable time to come
up with something that no one else has ever done before, phone a few
friends and start a business. Remember to use Constant Feeling of
Love.

7.
Taste test by tasting watery substance in pot. If you like, then turn
off Stove Plate and allow to cool. If you don't like, add some more
of what you do like and follow step 5, 6 and 7.
8. Using Pair of Hands, add sectioned amounts into Blender and place lid on Blender. Turn Blender on.
9. Blend until you think its right (once again experiment with chunky or smooth!). Pour resultant goodness into Large Container.
10. Enjoy immediately, save some for me or as shown below.

I like! Your writing, as well as your cooking skills. Since the old days of omelette surprise, all seems to have been leaping and bounding! Great dream raconteuring. Insight was had. I'll share if you care.
