Mint and Thyme

Jesus took bread, and thanked God for it. He broke it then gave it to the friends sitting with him… this was a special meal and He made it symbolic. This bread is my body. Remember when you break bread with friends that it was Me , your friend , whose body was broken for you. I love you so much that I let this awful death happen to me.

Luke 22 : 19. John 3:16( Sandy’s wording.)

Growing together in the garden, the tall mint leans over a wooden planter with thyme in abundance.

Here is a thought . What would you do?

Soup with Friends
How?
Bring a tin of soup per person.
Tomatoe or Mushroom
(Easier for the two pots.)
Or
Your own homemade soup.
How much? Enough for you/ family and two more.

Bread bring your choice.

See you there. We would love to get to know each other.

Would you say:

What? Soup!

Or

What friends?

Or

When and where?

Mint green is a refreshing colour that brings a sense of calmness and tranquility, invigorating and soothing at the same time. Very much like the garden it grows in and the people we sometimes meet.

Just as bees make honey from thyme, the strongest and driest of herbs, so do the wise profit from the most difficult experiences.

Thyme to eat !

Plato and unknown.

Thank you for wondering what you would do? Have a good weekend.

Sandy 🙂

  1. A great post, Sandy. We used to have a group that got together many years ago. We would all bring a can of soup and dump them all in a kettle and what came out was what we ate. We brought either a tomato base or a milk base. It worked well.

  2. I love the idea of soup with friends, we did it regularly especially in winter. The soup enhances a homely, caring family vibe without the airs and graces… Just enough to encourage comradery and care. An Afrikaans words you might know geselligheid/geselskap.. I can’t think of better words. I hope your soup evenings go well.
