ok....well, i'm a jewish mama so i'll share my soup stocks with you.

Chicken soup seems to be one of the few things i can eat right now.

Chicken soup stock:
Take 1-2 large chicken breasts or a whole large chicken if you're feeding tons and boil it in water. Add 2-3 chicken bouillion cubes if you like - or if you're like me just add some dill, salt and pepper to your boiling chicken. Turn the heat down and let it simmer . add more water when you need to. When the chicken is done it will start falling off the bone. can take 2-3 hours. Or...turn on your crockpot and throw in the chicken and fill the crockpot with water. Let it cook overnight on low!

I add carrots, potatos, rice usually - sometimes noodles or matza balls. (i used to add celery and onions but am holding off on those)

Veggie stock:
every time you cut carrots, onions, celery, squash or any vegetable..take the 'ends and peices' and throw them in a ziplock in the freezer. When you're ready to make stock just toss all those pieces into your crockpot, fill with water and cook on low overnight. Strain the pieces out and whats left is your veggie soup stock/broth.
