More Soup...Less Stress!
Thank you for supporting our church by making soup. Your contribution is an important part of Sinterklaas. Here are some directions to help you.
1. TYPES OF SOUP & QUANTITY
-
You may make any type of soup that you like to eat.
-
Do not make over 10 containers of one soup. Feel free to make more than one type of soup.
-
Please be sensitive to allergies.
2. SOUP CONTAINERS – 24 oz. only.
-
Pick up soup containers in the kitchen of Cook Hall. We are only using 24 oz. containers this year. You MUST use our containers. Do not use previously used containers. Wash the new containers before adding your soup.
-
IMPORTANT: Type a label and put it on the LID of the soup container. The label should include the name of the soup and its ingredients.
-
· If the soup is vegetarian or vegan, be sure to include the name of the stock. If you need help to prepare the label, please contact Evelyn.
-
When you fill the containers, leave a small space (1/2 inch) at the top. Ice forms and loosens the lid if it is filled to the top.
3. LOG IN YOUR SOUP AND PUT IN FREEZER
-
Log in: Be sure to print your name and the name and quantities of your soups on the log in sheet in the blue folder near the refrigerator.
-
Freezer: Put your soup in the CHEST freezer in the kitchen in Cook Hall between November 1 and December 3. If the chest freezer is full, put the soup in the UPRIGHT freezer.
4. DEADLINE
Be sure to log in and put your soup in the freezer by Tuesday, December 3.
That’s it! When you’ve made your soup, sit down and relax, knowing that you’ve helped raise money for God’s work in our church and community.
Let me know if you have questions.
Thanks!
