Soup's On!

I've been a bit busy volunteering at the girls school this week.
This Friday is our annual "Soup Day." I am co-chairing this event along with another mom, Iris.
What is Soup Day? Soup day is a very big day. The students perform a play called "Stone Soup." Then after the play our school comes together to enjoy a warm bowl of soup.
There is a lot of prep work involved. For the past 3 weeks, a bit at a time, Iris and I have been planning for the big day.
Thursday is prep day and each grade, every student pitches in, from making butter, cutting the veggies and baking cookies.
Finally, Friday we cook the soup and enjoy our meal as one big happy family.
I will be a school for the next two days from 8:00 am to 3 pm prepping, cooking, serving and cleaning up. I am very nervous and excited.
So say a prayer that everything goes well.
