The 7 women doing the 7 movie rolls of an actor every year are really over the top.
They put a lot of effort, time, and it looks like money into this.
There is probably a competitive element which is normal, for any group of 7 friends. There's usually 3 or 4 that want to be viewed as best by the rest... Leader of the Laundromat.

When Fluffy left you that dead mouse she was trying to plague you, trying to kill you... again.

If you're working with condensed soup – Campbells, or any of the other squintillion private label brands out there – the easiest way to improve it is to reconstitute it with ordinary dairy milk rather than that trial-and-error 'add a little bit of cream' process.  It might also work with almond or soy milk or any of the other vegan alternatives, but I don't know.  And since I think that these things are an abomination upon the good earth and choose not to use them, I probably never will.

My mother made it with milk, but I never liked that. I cut the soup with water, then put butter in it, or sometimes a dollop of sour cream.
