Even though I took the cheap way out on this soup, it ended up pretty good. Instead of getting nice lump crab meat, I opted for canned. And instead of getting lump crab from a can I got shredded. Not exactly what I expected. The soup is tomato-based and also includes fennel. Good enough to try again with a better choice in crab.

Raw Mustard Greens Salad
This salad is like a kicked-up Ceaser. The croutons are made from country bread, which is coated with oil flavored with garlic and anchovy, and then with a little grated Grueyere. The dressing is lemon juice and anchovy-garlic oil. Toss mustard greens with the croutons, dressing, and an extra bit of grated Gruuyere.
Triple Ginger Cookies
Gotta love a ginger cookie. These have crystallized ginger, fresh ginger, and ground ginger. The texture is chewy and soft, and amazingly, the ginger flavor was not too overpowering. It is balanced out with molassas, cinnamon, and clove.
