SELF, Day Eight: Homemade Chicken Noodle Soup




Alright, so one of the things I loved about Korea was my Korean Mum who used to come over, ostentatiously quite frankly, and bring me soup from the local soup shoppe. It was amazing, my favourite being the pumpkin soup with rice cake balls in it. Delicious. Anyway, I do miss that and now that I'm lying in bed, fever-ridden and sore, I miss it even more.

I braved the outdoors today, pulled on some Lulus and a hoodie, and got out to make me a chicken soup. And you know, after reading the labels, the Knorr vegetable cubes with less salt were better for me than the organic chicken stock in that container that reseals. Go figure.

Anyway, whipped up this masterpiece, made me some tea (and more tea) and slept between episodes of Frasier.

My bed is the best place on earth (take THAT, Korea!).

P.S. They call "pulp", bits here in England. What is that all about?

Oh, and I gave my ticket to Sienna Miller's show at the Theatre Royal away today :( It just wasn't right to call in sick and then go into London like a regular theatre-goer. Sigh. Next time, Sienna, next time.
