Personal Notes:
This makes plenty and is a great funeral soup to serve a crowd. I usually send with loaf of french bread and a tossed salad.

Kevin had never been any further East on I-70 than Topeka...until our trip to the 2018 Stuckey Family Reunion. No trip to St. Louis is complete without stopping by the Arch, Busch Stadium, and the Brewery. He had a blast! While back East I also took him to see the covered bridges and a cavern. He had never seen anything like it. He can't wait till our next adventure.
