Christmas Party Idea: Soup’s On!

July 24, 2008

December is a great time for festive get-togethers. Tree-trimmings, carolings, cookie exchanges, gift exchanges – the month can be a flurry of parties.

One idea that I’m partial to is the “Soup’s On!” The basic gist of this shindig is to invite friends and family for a simple supper of soup, bread, and maybe Christmas cookies.

Your guests’ contribution? Canned soups and foods to donate to your local food pantry. What a great way to gather friends, food, and philanthropy all in one place!

LOVE it. This is a beautiful post! I think this winter I am going to hostess something like this. It is better to give, than to receive. Great post!

I would love to see readers’ soup recipes, too. We LOVE soup at our house.

This is a fantastic idea! First of all, I LOVE soup! I have so many recipes that I make throughout the fall and winter (and spring, since I live here in Maine).

Thanks so much for participating in this conversation about "a mom's life."

This is a place where moms can be themselves. Remember that each mother's path looks a little different. Please keep your comments respectful and kind. Reasonable minds will disagree in a nice way.

So let's talk about it, using "our big girl words."
