Only if you quit reading after the first few words.

"This mock bouillabaisse is so scrumptious that you would never know it
had anything “left over” in it. You do have to stop and pick up a dozen
or so fresh mussels and a few clams the day you’re making it, but
otherwise everything else is at hand"

Sure, I'll get right on that. First I have to buy a kayak. Or maybe I
can just borrow a yacht from one of my well-heeled neighbors.

I love clam chowder but I've only made it once. (Seems to me I got the
recipe from gloriap years ago.) I had some wonderful NE style clam
chowder at The Naked Fish when I was on a business trip in Waltham, MA.
Good stuff! But that's about the extent of my interest in "fish soup".

I do tend to forget about 'She Crab Soup'. But that's another one I
don't make at home or think much about. Sorry! Then again, I don't eat
out a lot.

It's a South Carolina crab bisque, using local blue crab meat with the
roe (hence, the "she" crab). There are a number of recipes. This is
one example:

(I have no idea what that means, Sheldon.)

Since "Earl" thinks he knows so much about me, let's ask: in what years
was I a waitress? I've never denied being a waitress or working in
restaurants. I've even mentioned how old I was at the time. I'm not
sure about the point of this stalking. How old was I at the time? Come
on, spit out the details of my life! You can't. Because you don't
really know. It's just another silly attempt at trolling. By the
friend of a lame ass from Zephyrhills.

I prefer to quit after reading "New England", "mock" and "bouillabaisse".

That's nice, it's a stew, but no bouillabaisse.

A little hint : Never mix mussles with fish.
It just doesn't work.

How can you tell they're spelling it wrong on TV? Do they pronounce
it like "father" instead of pronouncing like "ass", which is correct?
