the great egg soufflé caper page 1 by ric Gustafson


Elnora Jensen walked quietly down the carpeted steps and turned on the lights. The large downstairs room was used as a youth room, confirmation classes and this morning Easter breakfast. She walked over and opened the heavy purple curtains to show a beautiful Easter sky. As she turned around, she noticed the smiling face of Roger Corby the church's custodian and handy man.
" Happy Easter Roger". She walked and checked the refrigerator to make sure that they had plenty of orange juice.
" Happy Easter to you too Elnora". He pulled up a rolling rack of folding chairs and began to set them up.
She glanced at the long tables as he set them up. " Did the hot cross buns get here from the store?".
" Yes, they did". He began to set up chairs at the tables. " And we should have plenty of napkins and paper plates also".
" Good". She began to set up the coffee pots and put the napkins, paper plates and paper cups on the serving table. " How is the upstairs doing?".
" Just fine".
