the great egg soufflé caper page 3 by ric Gustafson


Elnora looked at her watch. There was only twenty minutes to go.
" Happy Easter Elnora" Sylvia Chase said with s smile. She was carrying an egg soufflé dish. " The egg soufflé is here".
Not long after, a couple more church members brought egg soufflé dishes.
Elnora warmed up the hot cross buns.
Some church members poured orange juice into paper cups.
Elnora began to feel a weight coming off her shoulders.
The first of the sunrise service parishoners began to come down the stairs.
" Happy Easter Elnora" Mildred Gerch exclaimed as she hugged her friend. " Christ is risen".
" Christ is risen indeed". She handed her friend a plate of egg soufflé and a hot cross bun.
The sunrise crowd was small. Elnora had just enough egg soufflé to go around. When the traffic had died down, Elnora sat down to rest.
