the great egg souffle caper page 3a by ric gustafson
" Elnora, we're getting a lot more people than expected" Lucille Gass said loudly as she gave a loaded tray to a church member.
" How are the hot cross buns and orange juice doing?" Elnora asked as she surveyed the long line still coming through. A worried look overcame her as she remembered she had just given her only extra egg souffle dish for upstairs.
" Elnora, we need some more egg souffle upstairs".
In disbelief, she turned around to see her friend George Weiler.
" I gave the dish to someone to bring up there" she said with an expression of horror. " You never got it".
" No" George replied.
Elnora ran upstairs to find her friend Marjorie preparing more hot cross buns to take out. " Marjorie, did that egg souffle dish ever come up?".
" No" her friend replied as she poured orange juice into paper cups. " We're just about out too".
Peace and God's blessings. Love Ric
