At 6:00 the guests arrived laden with quarts of soup. All talk with introductions and "how do I know you?" or "how do you know Cheryl?". After gabbing about life we began with Mint Juleps. One guest brought homemade french bread, so we were drooling over that. The Gumbo smelled amazing! I was so looking forward to enjoying this meal after its aroma filled my house all day.Soon we were serving up; spoon of white rice in the bowl and cover it with Gumbo. Shortly after I was hearing the comments. They loved it! Although I have a New Orleans heritage with my Mom growing up there, I hadn't made Gumbo in over 15 years. I soon found out what a mistake that was! The flavors had melded together to create an indescribable burst of flavor in my mouth that I call "A circus in my mouth." The french bread was baked to perfection!
After the meal we did our soup talk, then swap.....then more talk....and more talk.....

3rd Annual Spokane Soup Swap
Thursday, January 27, 2011 6:00-8:00pm
Located at the home of Cheryl Corrigan-Matamoros,
3806 W Woodside Ave. 328-9563
Get those pots on the stove and mix up a soup worth sharing for our 3rd Annual Spokane Soup Swap. Our winter has been long and cold. There's nothing like a warm bowl of soup to warm up a dreary day. I'm looking forward to tasting 6 different soups this winter, thanks to YOU!
