Some things you have to do every day. Eating seven apples on Saturday night instead of one a day just isn't going to get the job done.
[Jim Rohn]

 

Watermelon --it's a good fruit. You eat, you drink, you wash your face.
[ Enrico Caruso]

Fruits are acceptable gifts, because they are the flower of commodities, and admit of fantastic values being attached to them. If a man should send to me to come a hundred miles to visit him, and should set before me a basket of fine summer-fruit, I should think there was some proportion between the labor and the reward.
[ Ralph Waldo Emerson]

Carrot Soup With Plums

 

Ingredients

1 lb small carrots
1 to 2 small turnips
6 cups, good homemade chicken stock
1 tbsp honey
2 tbsp dijon mustard
2 to 4 tbsp chopped parsley
1 to 2 tbsp chopped fresh tarragon
2 to 3 tbsp butter
6 to 8 pitted plums



 

Preparation

Rind and juice of 2 oranges Salt and pepper

Grate the rind from the oranges. Squeeze 1/4 cup fresh orange juice.
Clean the carrots and trim the stems. If the carrots are small, cook
whole; if they are larger, cut into any shape so they will cook in
about 10 minutes. Peel the turnips and cut into 1/2 inch pieces. In a
saucepan, cook the vegetables in the orange juice on slow heat until
tender. Add the chicken stock and let the vegetables steep on a slow
flame for another 10 to 15 minutes. Remove to a blender and puree
until smooth; correct the seasonings. Make a compound butter by
combining the orange rind, honey, mustard and herbs with softened
butter. Halve the plums and then slice each half into thin slices
that can be fanned out. Ladle the soup into bowls; garnish with a
piece of the compound butter and the plums.
