Help From Your Pantry?

       I hope you all had a great break!  Tomorrow morning will be here all too soon. 

       I was wondering if you might be able to help the class out this week by donating items you may already have at home. As you read in the e-mail, we will use the story of Stone Soup to introduce a unit on culture and community. I would like to mix up a batch of soup in the class. We will need small quantities of items to mix up the "recipe." I will be making the soup in a large crock pot, so we don't need much of each item--only 1-2 cups of the vegetables. If you are able and willing to send in some items, please respond in the comments section of this post. Thank you so much for being willing to help out with such late notice!
       What we could use:
  • 1 large carrot, chopped
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 2 celery stalks, chopped
  • 2-3 medium potatoes, skinned and diced
  • 1 cup corn kernels
  • Favorite seasonings
  • Anything else you thing would work!
Please send the items in by Wednesday.  Thank you so much!
     Please know that conference day is coming up soon--November 1.  Look for a note to come home tomorrow about signing up for your time.

do you need broth also?

Ms K said...

First of all: Thank you, thank you, thank you!

I was going to use bullion, but if you have broth to spare, sure.

Make sure those kiddos are in bed. Tomorrow is going to be a long day, I'm sure!

I can send in some shredded carrots - how fun! I remember doing a similar activity when I was in school, so it's nice to relive that through Kid 1.0 :)

I didn't have corn, but sent peas. If someone has corn, please send.

thanks,

Hmmm...I responded on Sunday that Cohen would bring in carrots but I don't see my comment. I'll send in some seasoning in tomorrow morning...
