Adding some brown rice and then pureeing part of the soup might do it.

I have split pea flour and have also cooked lentils then pureed to thicken.

Health and recovery~ma for your grandmother, msbelle.
Also, I got a lead on a job which might be really interesting: doing environmental work in-house for a big solar company. Sounds cool, less stressful than consulting, and less ridiculous than federal work.
Sounds neat! I hope it comes through and turns out to be something you'd like.
I got a new radio/iPod player installed in my car today. (The old one had no way to hook up the iPod and I'll be road tripping with my sister on Nov. 1. So I'll want my playlists.) Then I met a bunch of rescued birds near the pet supply store: three different owls, a coopers hawk, and an African raven. The raven was the biggest of the bunch. A couple of the owls were the size of pint jars (literally pint sized). So cool! Then I replaced my wiper blades and walked the cat. All in all, a good day.

Ack! Reading through my insurance letters online and they are saying they added my neighbors kid to my insurance policy! No. No no no no.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Ha! Despite resistance by the geniuses at almost every step of the repair process (I don't even have the computer back yet and I can tell you haven't repaired or properly tested it), I am now in receipt of apologies from the manager of the store and of the Genius Bar as well as a new MacBook of the same configuration charging in my living room.
l forgot two of the seasonings in my grocery shopping and I don't intend to leave the house again this weekend, so I'll be able to get ingredients for at least one of the low-gly thickening plans Monday. Thanks for all the suggestions.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
msbelle, I hope your grandmother heals well.

Oh my stars and garters.
Hmmm. I can only wonder what a search on "garters" would have wrought.

Oh, msbelle, the temptation to ask about the glycemic index of those. But enough dietary bytes already.
I hope your grandmother gets clear of pain and infection both and soon.
Oh! The MacBook has finished charging. Adventure awaits.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Very successful yard sale, and great to see Theo, and....now I'm in the ER waiting room. My father was all worked up and she couldn't deal. Of course now he's fine. I'm hoping they get some ativan or something, because we could all use it!
