I'll give this a try! I had a similar nudge lately and found myself making a huge batch of spaghetti sauce. As it was simmering, I learned the little boy across the street was in the hospital with pneumonia. I was so happy to be able to put half of the sauce into a container for them to heat for quick suppers. This recipe looks delicious and we all love soup in this family. I’ll give this a try!

I'm so glad you stopped by. I was wondering why you hadn't been posting, but I guess I should have paid attention last time I was here when you said to subscribe (I had been following and just assumed it would keep updating). I've resubscribed now. So glad I'm back! I'll read through the posts I've missed. Have a good night... pk Hi Sandy! I’m so glad you stopped by.

The other half I either bring to my sister or mother. The beauty of it is that they return the favor. It makes meal planning that much easier. After my son was born, cooked meals were our gift a choice. It is a wonderful gift to a family when their energies need to be directed elsewhere. Half the time, I freeze it.

Instead of peas I put in celery. I did not add the parsnips and dill but that sounds yummy! Took batch to our neighbors still warm for their dinner if they so chose, or to put in their fridge for a later date. Always reminded and amazed at how blessed I am in the sharing and giving!!

It is definitely a reminder to me to be ready to help a neighbor of friend. It's so easy to get caught up in my own world that I forget to look around to help others. Thanks also for the chicken noodle recipe. We've all been sick in our home and having some of this would be nice to help us get better! Sandy, thanks so much for this post.

You were sweet to share it with your neighbors.. who have too much to deal with right now. I give leftover (or even first overs) to neighbors and friends. Especially the fattening ones!

Where I used to live I would always give me leftovers to my in-laws. My mother-in-law is not a cook so my father-in-law loved when I did that. I was also an active member of my church and there was always someone in need of an extra hand, so I helped out there too. Now, I just freeze what I can. But this post has given me a nudge and I know what I need to do. This post gave me goosebumps!!

My DIL is having minor surgery this morning so I knew they could use an easy meal. And hey, soups only get better when reheated :) Hi Sandy,
