Another month, another verse and another bowl of soup! We're making a "Maine" version of "Chicken Soup with Rice", inspired by the "Chicken Soup with Rice" by by Maurice Sendak (1962). Kids are really enjoying memorizing the poem of the month and I'm taking their picture with their soup in the same spot.
It's neat to see how the seasons change month to month on this old Maine farm.
November here.
December here.
January here.
February here.
March here.
April here.
I cannot commit to making the same soup 12 times this year, so I vary it. This month's soup was beef, barley, veggies...including fresh collards from our garden.
May
"In May I truly think it best
To be a robin lightly dressed
Concocting soup inside my nest
Mix it once, mix it twice
Mix that chicken soup with rice"

my favorite childhood book and my favorite month!
