Tiny Pasta and Egg Soup image

Serve this to or eat yourself when the body and soul needs a gentle hug... Kids love it with the little alphabet pasta. Be sure to cook the pasta first and drain so the soup is not too starchy. You can sneak in anything green that you like, but sometimes, it's nice to have a simple pleasure...
