Dear Can of Pea Soup That Expired in November 2007,

First of all, I now realize I must have bought you AFTER your expiration date. I hate when that happens! Second of all, it's probably partially my fault that I waited two whole years after buying you before I even thought about eating you. Third of all, I was going to eat you anyway to prove who makes the rules around here-- expiration date, shmexpiration date!

Lucky for you, my neighbor pleaded with me not to for fear of botulism.

You win Pea soup, you win,

Dear Neighbor,

Thanks for possibly saving me from botulism.

love,
r

  2. wow--you've gone soft since you moved to rundu. the rachel i know would never let something as insignificant as a two-year-old expiration date keep her from housing some delicious pea soup.

  4. Thanks for the note. I found your blog on my cousin's fiance's blog: http://inventhope.blogspot.com/ & haven't been able to stop reading since! I've forwarded onto my friends, too (one being A, above). :) I am curious to who is behind all these words, so I may send you an e-mail someday & perhaps you can share...

    Keep 'em coming & God bless. :)
