This recipe is so yummy and flavorful. The cayenne pepper adds a nice kick. You could make all kinds of variations using different veggies.
Cheddar Veggie Chowder
Serves: 4
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 finely chopped yellow onion
1 medium sized carrot, diced
1 stalk celery, diced
1 medium boiling potato, peeled and cut into 1/4 inch dice
2 tablespoons flour
2 cups chicken stock
3/4 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 small heads broccoli, cut into florets
8 oz extra sharp cheddar cheese, grated
In a large pot, heat oil over medium heat until hot but not smoking. Add onion, carrot, celery and potato. Cook until onion is soft, about 5 minutes.
Add flour and cook over medium heat, stirring for 3 minutes. Add chicken stock, Worcestershire sauce, cayenne and broccoli florets. Simmer, covered, for 10 to 15 minutes until broccoli and potatoes are tender.
Remove the pot from heat and stir in cheddar, a little at a time, stirring until cheese is melted.
Serve with crackers or croutons.
Cleaning tip: Use cold water to wash your cheesey bowls and utensils, this will keep the cheese from getting gooey and ruining your sponge.
All I can think of while posting this photograph is Freddy Quimby.
On another note, I wonder what it would be like to have a brain that wasn't filled with Simpsons references...

I made a stockpot of potato corn chowder with pork cutlet strips. It was very nice for this cold and windy weekend.

Lunch in Russ & Daughters
For over 100 years, Russ & Daughters — and now the Russ & Daughters Cafe — has been an integral part of the history of New York City, a touchstone in the lives of generations, and the torchbearer of Jewish food in America.
In 1907, Joel Russ immigrated from the shtetl of Strzyzow, now part of modern day Poland. He got his start selling schmaltz herring out of a barrel to the throngs of Eastern European Jews on the Lower East Side. It took him seven years to work his way up from that first herring barrel to having a pushcart operation, a horse and wagon, and then, in 1914, a brick and mortar store. The original store was on Orchard Street. In 1920, he moved the store around the corner to 179 East Houston Street, where it has been ever since.
Having no sons, Joel Russ required his three lovely daughters — Hattie, Ida, and Anne — to work in the store from the time they were teenagers. In 1935, he made his daughters full partners and changed the name to Russ & Daughters, a bold and controversial move. Russ & Daughters is the first business in the United States to have “& Daughters” in its name...100 year later, on the very same street where Joel Russ first stood outside and sold his herrings out of a barrel, his great-grandchildren, Josh and Niki Russ, continued the legacy and opened the Russ & Daughters Cafe.

Rockfish from the Farallon Islands. A China Rockfish (Sebastes nebulosus), Gopher Rockfish (Sebastes carnatus), and two QuillbackRockfish (Sebastes maliger).
I went sightseeing to the Farallon Islands last weekend before the storm. It was my first time out there and the highlight was probably seeing 20 to 30 humpback whales surface feeding over Fanny Shoals.
The Farallon Islands have a long history of bird egg harvesting, fur seal harvesting, whaling, and fishing. It was also the site of nuclear waste disposal during the first 30 years of the cold war. The aircraft carrier Independence, a target ship for two atmospheric nuclear tests, was purposefully scuttled to the west of the Islands.
We caught rockfish, lingcod, and sanddabs. It wasn't a great fishing day, but as the others sent me home with some of their catch I probably won't be buying fish for a month or so.
Sebastes species are slow growing territorial predators with venomous spines in their dorsal and anal fins. Several species are known to live 100 to 200 years. The group is commonly sold as "red snapper" in fish markets. There are about 130 species in the genus and many species have multiple color morphs -- making field identification difficult for sport and commercial fishermen. Several (if not all) Sebastes species are endangered by overfishing. Catch and release of non-target species is complicated by the expansion of air in the internal organs of Sebastes during retrieval. While they appear paralyzed or dead at the surface, Sebastes caught in less than 200 feet water can be returned to successfully to depth using special techniques involving weights and reverse barbless hooks or open bottom containers. Marine sanctuaries off the California coast will soon protect limited geographical sites from all fishing.
Next time I want to send a camera down there.
This was delicious clam chowder I had at a restaurant in Monterey. Yes, that's a beer to its above right, but not a Budweiser as the glass would suggest.

He's so cute! I love him already! He's much bigger than I thought. I can't find a wheel large enough for him in the stores. I had to order one online and it won't be here for a week. I hope he'll be okay on the smaller one until then.
