4 c water
1 1/2 cubes chicken bullion
2 bay leaves
Pinch ground sage (optional)

Appoximately equal parts, all chopped:
	about 2 stalks celery (1/8 inch bits)
	onion
	about 2 carrots (1/4 inch bits)
pepper
dried onion flakes (optional)

1/4 lb alphabet noodles

Lots of fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
Little bit of basil, chopped (optional)


Bring water, boullion, bay leaf, sage to a boil.

Add celery, onion, carrots, pepper, onion flakes.

Boil/simmer veg's for 8 minutes.

Add the noodles, boil/simmer until done, box says 6 minutes but it usually takes 10.  During the last couple of minutes fish out the bay leaf, and add parsley and basil.  You'll start running out of liquid - if this happens turn the heat way down and cover.

Makes about 4 servings of soup (for a sick person, anyway).
