Blue Moon Soup

Blue Moon Soup
By Gary Goss
Little, Brown and Company, 1999
Zis month, Spider eez all about outer space, and it inspired moi to whip up some out-of-zis-world soup for my buggy friends. You might think zat soup eez just for winter, but zee book “Blue Moon Soup” eez packed with scrumptious soups for every season—fresh, tangy Lemon-and-Egg soup for springtime, chilled Gazpacho for the summer, Corn-and-Pumpkin chowder for fall, and minestrone with hot dogs for winter. (Still feeling chilly? Try Miro’s Tasty Bean Soup for early springtime nights!)
You’ll never need another soup cookbook after you read zis one—eet’s impossible to pick a favorite! I cannot wait to try Full Moon Soup, a Portuguese recipe full of kale, kidney beans, and basil. My buggy friends loved Sweet Dreams Soup, which eez a creamy carrot-and-ginger blend. And Spider has been begging me to make Ice Cream Soup. He doesn’t realize how easy eet eez to make yourself! Here’s a tip—let your ice cream melt in your bowl, and drizzle chocolate sauce on top. Mmmagnifique!
