Yes it was nearly midnight here. But I still got hungry for that soup!
I am happy and feel most honored to know you think about me when you are writing! And you are right, I look forward to reading whatever you write about.
I think about you and talk about you here too! Just this morning I was telling my husband about your shopping trip, how your markets are so different than ours, and about the ladies who carry your shopping to your car. He said what hard work that must be for those ladies and he felt sorry for them to have to do that work. Different than here where if someone said they would carry your things you would worry that they would run off with them!
Oh, you know I read somewhere that if you are writing something and you think of a certain person that you are writing to, instead of a general 'audience' it makes a better story! A more personal story, so that everyone who reads it feels that you are writing just to them too! So you have chosen a very good approach!
