Good Friend, Great Soup...

Or should that be the other way around. Either way, I have been fighting illnesses for over a month now and all I really want is someone to wait on me hand and foot and bring me good soup. Well today after I found out I have pneumonia and was promptly sent home from work, I sent Toula a message to inform her that I really am sick and not faking it. She had been down in Bloomington and Peoria today taking another of her CPA tests.

A few hours later she arrived at the door with broccoli cheddar soup full with bread bowl and extra baguette. Yes! It was just as delicious as I had hoped and dreamed about for the last month. She even warmed it up for me and served me on the couch. I know, I know, I'm kind of a baby, but it's nice to be waited on when you're sick.

How awesome is it to have a friend that would go out of her way after a three hour test to bring you soup, all the while she still has to drive two more hours back to her place? Pretty awesome.

Good friends are the greatest. I'm currently accepting applications for more, Toula, if you're interested.
