SOUP PICNIC
EVERY LABOR DAY, FOR AT LEAST FORTY YEARS, BUT NOT SINCE 1971,
THE ROHR FAMILY HELD WHAT THEY CALLED A "SOUP PICNIC." EACH INDI-
VIDUAL FAMILY WOULD BRING A PAN OF VEGETABLE SOUP, AND AT THE PICNIC
SITE (WHICH TRADED OFF FROM FAMILY TO FAMILY YEARLY) THE SOUPS WOULD
BE COMBINED IN A BIG BUTCHERING KETTLE, AND HEATED OVER AN OPEN
FIRE. THE FAMILY MADE A DAY OF IT, AND WOULD EAT THE SOUP BOTH FOR
LUNCH AND SUPPER THAT DAY.
WHEN THE CUSTOM FIRST STARTED, THE MEALS CONSISTED SOLELY OF
SOUP AND CRACKERS. AFTER A FEW YEARS, CORN ON THE COB WAS ADDED,
SINCE MANY OF THE FAMILY MEMBERS WERE GROWING IT, AND IT WAS PLENTI-
FUL DURING THE LATE SUMMER. AFTER A FEW YEARS, DESSERTS WERE ALSO
ADDED TO THE TRADITION, BUT IT WAS ALWAYS KEPT AT THAT--NEVER ANY
SIDE DISHES, OR MEAT (OTHER THAN THAT IN THE SOUP ITSELF.) (IN MY
WORDS)

Fruit soup
I was told about this very old Polish dish by my
father, who was told about it by his mother. This
is a dish that is only served on Christmas and
under no condition anytime else. The dish is called
fruit soup. As you can guess it is made from fruit.
When it was made no set amounts of ingredients were
ever written down. It was all by inspection. The list
of ingredients are as follows.
freeze dried apples
freeze dried plums
freeze dried apricots
freeze dried bananas
freeze dried pears
freeze dried oranges
freeze dried kiwi
prunes
prune juice
mushroom juice
All the fruits are freeze dried because if they weren't
the soup would be too sweet-- the same reason why the
prunes, prune juice, and mushroom juice are added.
As an after note. I've tasted this soup only once and
it was once too often.
