Sharing in Christmas
On Christmas Eve, the aroma of spices and warmth filled my kitchen as I embarked on a heartwarming tradition—cooking a pot of soup to share with neighbors.
As I chopped vegetables and stirred the pot, memories of childhood Christmases flooded my mind. It was a time when my grandmother, with a twinkle in her eye, would create a pot of food that could bring smiles to everyone's faces.
Determined to carry on this tradition, I crafted a hearty vegetable soup with a blend of aromatic herbs.
Once the soup reached perfection, I carefully filled containers, ensuring the warmth would endure the journey. Bundled up against the harmattan chill, I set out to share this gift with my neighbors.
I was met with surprised smiles as I handed each neighbor a container of homemade soup. The expressions of gratitude mirrored the warmth of the soup itself. The simple act of sharing a warm bowl of soup created a sense of community that went beyond the boundaries of our individual homes.
As the night arrived, neighbors gathered outside, sipping soup and sharing stories. Laughter echoed through the cold air, and the moon shone bright on us, together we expressed gratitude for the year.
