Well, I have to say it was a great year for soup! We had 18 Swappers and 19 Soups. Lentils made a huge appearance this year, there were at least 6 lentil soups. I know there are at least 3 in my freezer waiting to be eaten! We also collected 315 food items for the Friends of St. Andrews food bank so it was a huge success.
The Soup Nazi was bribed and cajoled, but in the end it was Vanessa's green chili soup that made his cold better that took home the ladle. Kyle is going to try harder next year since she was fighting mad about not winning this year!
We had all sorts of drama and intrigue during The Telling of The Soup. There were tales of unrequited lust, viagra and penicillin. Stories of Chinese meatballs, leftover Christmas hams and horse heads in your bed made the rounds, who will tell the best tale of all? The Soup Nazi said it was Jean, it might be because of the viagra, but I think it was the Italian threat...you decide...
Here is the winning Soup Story, a poem by Jean Grech
Amici Soup
Here is my soup - it's the best
Reason why?
Try to digest
Made with such tender care
Each little morsel of flavor to share
Never spicy - Never bland
A perfect taste
To beat the band
Sicily is the place it's from
Makes you feel so very young
I'll make you a deal you can't refuse
Try the soup...
What's to loose?
If you're not happy
Well that's too bad
A horses head
Will be in your bed
Throw Viagra out the door
That's what this soup is for!
Mangia!
