As you may have noticed, Pumpkin Soup is currently experiencing some technical difficulties. Something is up with the permalinks. Please bear with us as we try to rectify the problem. Scheduled soupy programming will be resumed shortly, we hope…
[Update: Normal service is resumed. I know you’re pleased. If you’re interested, it was the .htaccess rules […]

I’m so busy right now that all the fun things in my life (like keeping this blog updated) are ending up being somewhat neglected. Aside from making me a bit grumpy (all work and no play…) it also means that I keep having ideas for things to write for you that have yet to […]

Being rather preoccupied (with chocolate, it seems) I completely forgot to mark the occasion of P’Soup’s second birthday a little over a week ago. Pumpkin Soup has reached the terrible twos!

There’s not been much time spent down at the allotment recently. We were there briefly on Monday, but that was an administrative visit (filling in a form for the Association’s bank account) rather than to do any work.

Judging by the avalanche of comments from regulars and lurkers alike about the impending Pumpkin Soup version 2.0, it seems that you’re all very fond of the existing design. Don’t panic, folks! Things will be changing, but you’ll still be able to recognize P’Soup. And for those who can’t wait, here are a few details […]
