An exercise in futility

[offbalance]

After two hours, FOUR grocery stores, and a farmer’s market I STILL do not have all of the items I need in order to attempt to make a soup recipe I was interested in making. Exasperatingly enough, some of the employees didn’t even know what barley was. I only wish I were kidding. Looks like it will be tuna casserole tonight, even though awesome husband of excellence is going to attempt to find me some instant barley and ground ginger. So perhaps soup might happen, even if in leftover format.

The recipe was great, and thanks for posting that blog entry - as much as I wish I had an entirely witty, urbane, adult sense of humor, nothing will send me into giggle fits more quickly than jokes about flatulence.
