How to make Spinach soup, the Sabrina way!

(This recipe is from The Vegetarian Epicure)

You will need:
-Two quarts of water
-Two bunches of spinach
-Two potatoes
-About two bunches of green onions
-Two teaspoons of lemon juice (more may be needed, if you like it more sour)
-1 and 1/2 cups of Sour creme (More may be needed, if you like it with more sour creme)

STEP ONE:
Get two quarts of water. Make sure they are exact. (Apparently you must set them on the counter to make sure they are exact. If you decide you are too cool to set it on the counter, don't be surprised when your soup burns.) Then pour the water into a huge soup pot. Heat up the water.
STEP TWO:
Get two bunches of spinach (THIS IS A LOT OF SPINACH, MAN.) and clean it. WELL. when you take it out you will notice the water looks a bit like pee, feel free to be grossed out as long as necessary.
STEP THREE:
Take the stems off the spinach. (If this takes a huge amount of time, call your mom and ask her to help you.)
STEP FOUR:
Cut 3/4 of green onions into little green onions.
STEP FIVE:
Peel the potatoes. Feel free to laugh maniacally as you do so. Try phrases like "HAHA PUNY POTATO. I AM YOUR MASTER. COWER BEFORE ME." etc.

STEP SIX:
Dice the potatoes into 1/2 inch potatoes.
STEP SEVEN:
Throw half of the green onions, all of the potatoes, and all of the spinach into a huge pot. Let it simmer for an hour (While it's simmering is a good time to blog.) Stir about every few minutes. Add salt and pepper to taste.
STEP EIGHT:
After simmering, you will notice that the potatoes and spinnach have become smaller. This is normal. I know it is extremely cool, but you can't just sit and admire it. You must get on with the recipe. Now, put in the other half of the green onions.
STEP NINE:
Take 1 and 1/2 cups of sour creme and put it into a bowl. Then take 1 cup of the broth (not the soup, just the broth!!! Don't let that spinach slip past you!!!) and put the broth in the bowl with the sour creme.
STEP TEN:
Whisk the sour creme and broth.
STEP ELEVEN:
Pour the broth/sour creme mixture into the pot with the rest of the soup and stir it in.
STEP TWELVE:
put in 2 teaspoons of lemon juice. Stir.
STEP THIRTEEN:
Let it simmer AGAIN for ANOTHER hour. Be careful, now that there is creme in it, you have to be even more careful of it burning. Stir every one to two minutes. (You need to check it more often, so this is not a good time to create a full blog. Tweet instead. Tweets are much faster and smaller.)

STEP FOURTEEN:
This is where you can add more lemon juice, sour creme, salt or pepper if needed.
STEP FIFTEEN:
ENJOY! I served this soup with a nice side of peanut noodles (with no meat) and it was a nice combination. This soup serves six.
