Soup Nights are gatherings of people who want to eat and socialize. Meet new people, talk, watch movies, performances, listen to music or play games. Eat soup. Be happy.
Soup is provided by the host and should reflect current or cultural themes. Feel free to bring bread, wine, beer, cookies, or other edibles to share with everyone. Don't worry about anything fancy or being able to feed everyone.
As more and more people share the world becomes a souperior place.
We would like to see this become a regular event, happening every Thursday. Of course, obstacles could arise, like annoyed roommates, empty bank accounts or, dare I say, lack of interest. But let's be honest, how could you lose interest in soup night?
Also, soup night rulz.
Also! There's a temporary place to add notes, thoughts, ruminations, comments, names, or whatever you want. It's a super-high-tech-realtime-collaboration-revision-keeping-platform called EtherPad. It's essentially a wiki, so edit it and save revisions and delete things... you can't break it.
soup night tonight and for the summer…
UPDATE: PDX Soup Nights are not done for the summer, but probably won’t be happening every week…
hey gang!
Soup Nights have been absolutely amazing, and really none of it could have happened without you all. So thanks! Thanks for being you.
As summer nears, however, #PDXSoupNight will be taking a backseat position in the weekly activities list. WHY!? Because it’s hot outside, and there are only so many chilled soups one can endure.
BUTT!
…sorry, but fear not, dear reader. PDXSoupNight lives on through the summer as a “brand.” Yes yes indeed, soup night will be around as a hub (of sorts) for summer fun times. So feel free to email me, pdxsoupnight@gmail.com, about your new summer-time drug, and I will be the gateway pusher to the rest of this lovely little community. An email list will come in due time…. duly…
AND YET!
we will be having a soupish night tonight at 713 SE 17th, outdoors and with chilled, fruity soups. following will be a movie screening (probably at 2124 SE Belmont, but maybe elsewhere) of a movie that will knock your socks off. I have no idea what this movie is, but I’m open to suggestion.
who’s got socks that need removing?
vinh!
