I thought that making lentil soup for dinner tonight would be a great idea – what I didn’t know was that the choice I made would change my life forever. I didn’t realize that the recipe I was using is actually supposed to serve eight people until it was too late. Now I have a dangerous amount of soup on my hands, and absolutely nothing to do with it.
Can someone please come help me? I feel so alone, and full of soup.
Normally, I would put the rest of the soup in Tupperware containers and put it in the fridge to eat later, but my refrigerator doesn’t have any space left at all. Nothing in there is even close to its expiration date, which means that I can’t throw anything away – so what the fuck do I do now? Just…eat the soup?
No one should ever have to go through something like this.
I even asked my two roommates if they wanted any of it, but neither of them did. Apparently, my roommate Alex just “ate dinner” and my other roommate Jamara is “allergic to lentils”, so I guess I’m just gonna have to deal with this soup all by myself?
How can this world be so cruel?
I already ate as much of the soup as I possibly could, which was about two and a half bowls, but after that I just couldn’t stomach any more of it. It was pretty good, don’t get me wrong, but how am I supposed to eat eight bowls of lentil soup in one sitting? I may be a soup fan, but I’m not a Soup God. Speaking of God, does He exist? Because if so, why would he let this happen to me?
The only option I have left is to throw the rest of it away, but that still doesn’t sit right with me. I don’t want all this soup to go to waste. I mean, I used four cups of lentils, two whole carrots, and two liters of chicken broth to make it. Looking back, I probably should’ve known that I was making way too much soup, but that isn’t my fault! Obviously this is some cosmically aligned event that was meant to make me suffer.
As of now, I still have more than half of the entire pot of soup left, so if anyone reading this wants some lentil soup before it goes bad, please let me know ASAP. I can’t handle having all of this soup for much longer.
