We plan, we toil, we suffer - in the hope of what? A camel-load of idol's eyes? The title deeds of Radio City? The empire of Asia? A trip to the moon? No, no, no, no. Simply to wake just in time to smell coffee and bacon and eggs. |

Food Tip |
“Food for all is a necessity. Food should not be a merchandise, to be bought and sold as jewels are bought and sold by those who have the money to buy. Food is a human necessity, like water and air, it should be available.” |

Vanity is the food of fools. |

There are three possible parts to a date, of which at least two must be offered: entertainment, food, and affection. It is customary to begin a series of dates with a great deal of entertainment, a moderate amount of food, and the merest suggestion of affection. As the amount of affection increases, the entertainment can be reduced proportionately. When the affection IS the entertainment, we no longer call it dating. Under no circumstances can the food be omitted. |

Pick the cranberries over for stems and rinse in cold water. Combine
the 3 cups of water, the sugar and the spices in a large saucepan and
bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and add the cranberries. Gently
simmer the soup for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the cranberies are
soft and the liquid is well flavored. If necessary, add additional
sugar to taste.
Mix the cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of cold water to make a paste.
Whisk this mixture into the soup and boil for 1 minute. The soup
should thicken slightly. Let the soup cool to room temperature, then
refrigerate until chilled. The recipe can be prepared up to 48 hours
ahead up to this stage.
Just before serving, stir in the heavy cream and wine. The spices can
be left in or removed before serving. Serve the cold cranberry soup
in chilled glass bowls. If you like, you can garnish each bowl with a
dollop of sour cream.
Makes 5 servings.
