Hi Everyone,

I went to the store yesterday and purchased all the ingredients to make the "Italian Meatball Soup" out of the 29 minutes to dinner; however, I forgot the book in the van, and my husband drove it to work!!:eek:

Can somone please post it for me this morning? I want to make it before I go to work so it will be ready for dinner since I have to stop by a host's home to pick up a catalog show.

It sounds like such a great recipe for a rainy, cold day here in Nothern Indiana.

Thank you!:D
