it's cold! must eat soup!

Hurray! It's finally fall! Out come the sweaters! And in go the tank tops to the pajamas drawer!

So, does soup sound like fun today? It sure does to me: what sounds good?

Things I'm currently contemplating:
- venison chili
- venison stew
- chicken & dumplings
- cheese enchilada

I know, there are lots of other kinds of soup in the world - this is just the list of things I could make with a minimum amount of hassle. Is 7:00 too late to start? And does this sound like fun? (Let me know if you need me to pick you up from the airport - I'm guessing that's the best way to come if you're arriving from Penang, Boulder, Minneapolis, or Raleigh.)

Also - would someone be able to pick me up from Fleet Farm sometime before 7? I'm dropping off my car to get brand-spanking-new tires put on (WOO HOO!), and will also hope for the same or another kind soul to take me back there a little before 9 to pick it up.

Ha: think I'll try the poll idea again, just because I'm a geek AND a kid who gets excited about silly things.
