January 1st, a time for rebirth, resolutions, and renewed plans for the year ahead. And in the world of the E Streeters, that also means it's time for a Soup Run from John and Karen's house in Westford, an annual tradition that some among us look forward to for months!
As usual, the founder of the feast outdid herself, but this year was even more impressive, seeing as how she cooked up both vats while hampered by a boot immobilizer. Let's hear it for Karen!
This year's offerings were a spice-filled chicken noodle and a loaded pasta fagioli.
Anticipating leftovers, some of the E Streeters brought their own take-home containers. Apparently, Barry expected to take home enough to feed his family for a week.
The bowls are ready and waiting
All that's left to do is get these clowns away from the stove and out there for the morning run
Which of course, features the annual favorite race for the town line. Who won the first of this year?
(Hint: not this guy)
Afterwards, the wolves gather around to toast their First Run. And First Bowl.
And Second Bowl
The New Year also saw a new razor-sharp witted Carlos, ready to skewer any and all. Here, even he was getting a kick out of his own zingers.
Another year in the books, another notch in one of our favorite traditions. Good friends, good times, good runs, and great soup. Happy New Year to all. May you log plenty of healthy and happy miles on the roads ahead!
