“Maggie Stuckey lovingly – and deliciously— relays the story of a single street’s weekly neighborly tradition of gathering over bowls of warm and hearty soup. She welcomes us with warmth and generosity to the intimate group, lends us a bowl and spoon and begins the introduction to a new, truly wholesome way to view soup. Her recipes convey warmth and ease, written to consider both the cook and their beloved diners in their thoughtfulness and simplicity. In short, Soup Night will warm your heart— and your stomach.”
