And a reminder...

Tomorrow is the Ultimate Day of Ducebruary. Since it falls during Lent, the suggested compromise between feast and fast is fish soup of some sort. Fish, fish stock, tomatoes, fennel, a shot of pastis, white wine, garlic, all that fun stuff. Sea eel makes a good base for it. Serve with aioli and good bread and a dry rose wine.

I hope that this has been a great Ducebruary. Now, Our Excellency must get back to work.
