Hannah Glasse (1708-1770)

— 10 Tbs butter
— 6 Large yellow onions
— 8 Cups beef broth or soybased beef broth

Separately: Combine in a bowl large enough to add some soop:
— 2-Egg yolks & 1/2-Cup light cream. Mix together.
— Gradually add some soop to the bowl, stirring to avoid curdling.
— Gradually add bowl mixture to 'soop pot', stirring to avoid curdling.

~An Acorn Winter-Tree Story ~

PP-Press is also home to Plickity-Plunk™
a 4-seasons nature holiday fireside story...with a touch
of Winter-tree Christmas

PLICKITY-PLUNK™ was inspired by the writings of
Henry David Thoreau, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Emily Dickinson, and
Mimi's childhood growing years at Historic Millrace Pond:
Home to an ivy-laden stone cottage next to a miller's house
and a grandfather stone mill...bordered by a pond
and a daffodil-dotted millrace trailing through the woods.
