I wish I could say that is what this is. Isn't it a brilliant display of vibrant fuzzy color? Several weeks ago, we celebrated Shelby's baptism with a family dinner of taco soup. Usually what I do when I make a huge pot of soup is leave it in the pot and just put it in the laundry room fridge where I retrieve it each day for lunch or dinner until it's all gone. It usually lasts a full week and I don't have to think about what I am going to have for lunch, so it is a good system for me. But, embarrassingly, this time it lasted longer because it was such a huge batch and I kept putting off cleaning out the pot. I hate scouring pots, pans, or plastic containers. I have thrown out more plastic containers with left overs than I'd like to admit, especially those that contain Velveeta or cheese of any kind, really, that take some effort to clean. So, yeah, this pot sure is pretty this morning and I can't throw it away, so I guess I better get to scrubbing. I have already dumped it and it is soaking in bleach and antibacterial soap. There goes my appetite for today.
