New England Seafood Chowder
Lately, the morning air has been very crisp and cool. As my old bones fight off the chill, my mind starts thinking about the many soups I've eaten over the years.

That's where I had my first taste of an authentic seafood chowder at a little cafe that was down the street from the place we were renting for the week. Now, whenever I'm walking by the sea and happen to get a good nose-full of salty air, my tastebuds automatically recall that wonderful chowder. Let's make some right now!

Here's a response to that from the Salt Lake Tribune: "Farmers Don't Reap Benefits From Higher Food Prices --- Today, less than 2 percent of America's population is producing for our nation's and world's food and fiber needs. As consumers, we continue to enjoy high-quality, safe and abundant food at the world's lowest cost. We have been blessed with processed and fresh food products in our corner grocery stores that have traveled an average of 1,200 miles before ultimately reaching our kitchen tables." Read More...
The recent gaff by President Bush and Secretary of State Rice (i.e. blaming the spike in food prices on India's growing middle class) has naturally angered many folks in India. From the VOA News site:
