So I had to use up everything in the fridge. I made a chicken stew (a LOT of it-- I had 6 potatoes to use!). It's sort of a fricassee, I think-- it's got egg yolk and cream as a thickener, and tarragon and thyme for seasoning. i had a basic recipe for the broth, but otherwise, it was whatever was in the fridge, including arugula and cucumbers. It's pretty good, actually. Of course, I have to freeze most of it. I hope it freezes well.

Your soup sounds great. The dessert too! I love toasted nuts on fruit.
