Soup Nite

I've been looking forward to Soup Nite at my friend Lara's house ever since we made plans to get together a few weeks ago.  Sally was supposed to come too, but she got sick.  I've been friends with Lara and Sally since 7th grade, so it's such a treat when we get together.

Lara said she would make the soups, so we said we would bring dessert.  Todd and I made pumpkin muffins.



But we didn't stop there.  Todd thought a cream cheese frosting would make it extra-special.  :p  So our muffins ended up looking like cupcakes, but I don't think anyone minded.  :) 





We put them all in our handy-dandy cupcake carrier and left for Lara's house.


Lara went above and beyond and made not one, not two, but THREE different soups!
There was minestrone.


Clam Chowder


And a roasted tomato, bean, and chicken soup.


We brought some bread, and Lara prepared some soup fixins as well.


Oh goodness! I loved all the soups! I *almost* didn't have room for the pumpkin muffins with cream cheese frosting. I said *almost*, LOL! I did have a muffin and it was super-delicious.

You know a frosting is good when little kids get them all over their face!


We had so much fun with Lara & Rupert and the kids!

Everything was so yummy. We vowed to get together and have soup nite again. Love me some soup!
