Remember I talked about how a bowl of hot mushroom soup and a super cute pup resting on my chest IS the best way to spend a chilly day indoors?

Well, while I was writing that and having my little Max bundled up in my arms, I conveniently forgot to turn off the gas ring. Consequently, the smokey (burnt) flavour didn't mesh well with the mushroom soup. I spent my mid-morning/pre-afternoon throwing out the charred bits and pieces, and scrubbing the pot.

SO, minus the bowl of hot mushroom soup, cuddles and snuggles (cuggles) with Max warms me up inside out. Pretty darn good way to spend a chilly day indoors.
