Weekly Soup

As I was gathering veggies this morning to make a pot of turkey soup, I was reminded of a friend from years ago, Diane. 

Diane was a Navy wife, and times were a little tough, especially when you had 4 growing, hungry children. 

Each night, after dinner, Diane would take the left-overs from dinner and put them in the freezer.  On Friday, she would gather all the left over veggies, meat, etc. from her freezer and make soup.  I think that was a pretty clever idea. 

Seems like with 6 at the dinner table, there would never be enough leftovers for a meal, and this way, there was no waste, and Friday’s dinner was pretty much free.  Kudos to Diane.
