1 garlic clove, minced
1 tablespoon Old Bay seasoning
1/4 teaspoon salt

1 bay leaf
4 cups clam juice
1 1/2 cups whole milk
1/2 cup half-and-half
1 pound lump crabmeat, shell pieces removed
1/3 cup dry sherry
Place flour in a 9-inch cast-iron skillet; cook over medium heat 15

expenses. And we certainly thank you for it, but - - Holy, SMOLEY! - -
by golly, the rest of you: help us out! If you enjoy receiving Recipe du
Jour or Dessert du Jour daily - - even if we help brighten your day only
a LITTLE bit - - please consider making a donation by sending a check
made payable to RECIPE DU JOUR for ANY amount to: Friends of the du

In Monday's issue, Rich mentioned that Molly had called that morning
saying it had snowed where she lives in Minnesota; which prompted Rich
to write about how he prefers the somewhat more moderate climate of
Virginia Beach. Following is Molly's response:
Molly's Note:
24yrs ago was the last time it snowed before October 12th in the Twin
Cities area. True it is Way to early for snow, and we might have just
missed out on all the wonderful colors that autumn has to offer but I
wouldn't change it. While my father dislikes the winter and cold I Love
it. Yes I miss the gardenias but I love the lilacs that can only grow up
north. I miss my family and I miss my friends but I know that I will be
back to see them soon and I know that this snowy land will give me just
the boost I need to get my schooling done and my career started! I love
you daddy and thank you for telling me about the gardenias!!!

Do You Remember?
I ONLY HAVE EYES FOR YOU
The Flamingos 1959
My love must be a kind of blind love
I can't see anyone but you
Sha bop sha bop
Are the stars out tonight
I don't know if it's cloudy or bright
I only have eyes for you dear
The moon may be high
But I can't see a thing in the sky
I only have eyes for you
I don't know if we're in a garden
Or on a crowded avenue
You are here and so am I
Maybe millions of people go by
But they all disappear from view
And I only have eyes for you
