I’ve always wanted to try this soup (cooking and tasting. Unabashed rookie here). Not sure I will make it, but at least I’ll order it somewhere.

Chocolate chess pie has my interest.

I just love your illustration and the story, Vicki! I know I would have loved The Front Porch--just my kind of restaurant. I don’t think I’ve ever tasted Mulligatawny soup, but your recipe sounds delicious and doable.

I loved this post about the Front Porch! Maybe you can recreate the English Toffee Pudding!

It was fun to read a bit about your post-grad life in New York, Vicki--thanks so much for sharing! I also moved to NYC right after graduation, and wouldn’t trade those years for the world. Lovely illustration, as always, and the soup looks delicious.

I love this story! and the illustration! That the restaurant founders would open their place without having any experience, hire mostly artists to run it, and make it work, and then sell it to investors is quite a story. I love the concept too: soup and dessert, what else could one want? Thanks for the recipe too. Perfect for these chilly days.
