Don't Shut Those Pearly Gates

" Soup comes into its own, poor man style, as a main course. One small serving of a ravishing soup is infuriating. It is like seeing the Pearly Gates swing shut in one's face after one brief glimpse of Heaven." page 5 CCC.

Just finished a bowl of corn chowder vaguely reminiscent of Marjorie's Cream of Fordhook Soup ( page 18 CCC). Cheated a little with a can of creamed corn. Microwaved the potatoes and added them to the corn and the cream. Added a can of non-creamed corn and 6 oz of smoked ham. Tossed it all in the crockpot and went to work in the garden. When I came from collard care dirty and tired, the soup was fabulous with rosemary bread from this morning.
