Mrs Wobble The Waitress...

... Wobbled with the jelly... and virtually everything else... as far as I can remember... and Miss and Master Wobble ended up donning their rollerskates and deftly catching the falling/flying food before it could land on startled customers...Turning their mothers  unfortunate mishaps into  talking points. "Bravo! Well done to the little Wobbles" I hear you cry... "But what the... does this have to do with anything?" 

Well... I am quite an expert at throwing my own food down myself..

(my catching is improving!)... I am awaiting the donning of rollerskates (or even perhaps usage of a skateboard) with excitement :D

and is familiar with soup recipes, will know what naturally followed on from that train of thought...

 Moving swiftly on... there are now 5 large yoghurt pots of the newly renamed "Weeping Octopus" soup cooling on the kitchen worktop... Jill is sure all DO have lids... somewhere... they were both got out at the same time... so...
