“Eat soup first and eat it last,
and live to till a hundred years be passed”

 Do you love soup?  Do you have a great soup recipe?  Do you want to help support the Rocky Neck Cultural Center?  Then you don’t want to miss this. 

 On Sunday, April 21 from 3:00-5:00pm, mark your calendars for Sailor Stan’s First Annual Invitational Soup’s On – Best of Cape Ann Soup Competition with proceeds to benefit the Rocky Neck Cultural Center. 

 If you make a great soup that you would like to have included in the competition, email me at khanstudio@comcast.net with your name and the type of soup you will bring.  Entries will be limited to 14 unique soups, including Karen Roberts’ and my own special secret recipes, so there is room for 12 additional entries.  We want to be able to offer a variety of unique soups for people to enjoy and vote for, so come up with something other than chicken, unless you know you make the best damn chicken soup ever.  The creator of the winning soup will win a $25 gift certificate to Sailor Stan’s, in addition to the worldwide acclaim and notoriety of being the best soup maker on Cape Ann.  Fun, delicious, heart and tummy-warming, and all for a good cause. 

Those who just love to eat soup, show up at Sailor Stan’s with $12 in hand ($5 for children under 12), enjoy soup, fresh bread and a beverage to your heart’s and belly’s delight, cast your vote for your favorite soup, and help support the Cultural Center.  And while you’re here, make sure you stop by the Center and enjoy the Best of Rocky Neck show currently on exhibit.

 P.S.  I make a darn good soup, and Karen is the “Soup Nazi”, so bring on the competition!  I’m talkin to you, Sista Felicia!
