*** A WORD FROM THE KITCHEN ***
Well We enjoyed our first day of Spring and feels like
we're back to winter. That will not stop us from staying
in a "Sunshiney" mood and I've already got out the gardening
gloves. Although the entire yard happens to be under
construction this year since the pool demolition, believe
me I'll have em in pots out there if I have to. I'm in the
mood for a nice SPRINGTIME VEGGIE SOUP recipe today to keep
the kickoff season going.
Enjoy!

SPRING VEGGIES: In the height of Radish season, if you
don't have the luxury of the pulling them straight from
the garden... here's how to get the most out of the next
best thing:
Look for red globes sold in batches with their greens
still attached. Fresh looking greens are a good sign of
quality, and they're edible as well! Fix a radish and
broccoli slaw by grating broccoli stems, radishes and
carrots. Marinate the grated vegetables in a mixture of
soy sauce, sesame oil, de-fatted chicken stock, rice wine
vinegar, grated ginger root, a smashed garlic clove and
toasted sesame seeds. Remove the garlic before serving.
