We often forget that temptation can come from any quarter, even from within our own family circle. We expect the Devil to assault us like a roaring lion, as ugly and fearsome as can be. We don’t expect him to come to us dressed up like an angel of light, speaking in the honey-sweet tones of the ones we love. Yet the Bible warns us that such an approach is easy for him to adopt (2 Cor. 11:14). Thus, Satan didn't only confront Jesus head-on in the wilderness (Matt. 4:1-11); he also tempted him more subtly through the words of one of his closest disciples, Peter (Matt. 16:23).

INSTRUCTIONS

Recipe by: Jo Merrill * Peel, core, cut into eighths
and set aside in lemon water. Remove apples from water
and place in 4-quart stock pot with half the Reisling,
half the Calvados and all remaining ingredients except
the cream and yogurt. Bring to a boil, and reduce to a
simmer. Cook for 20-30 minutes.  Remove from heat and
force contents of pot through strainer. Puree
ingredients that remain in strainer and return to the
liquid. Chill soup over ice.  Whisk in yogurt and
cream and serve in iced glasses. Note: This recipe did
not say what to do with the remaining Reisling and
Calvados. I think it would be added after the soup is
chilled if you wish a stronger taste of those 2
ingredients. This recipe is from the world famous
Prince of Wales Grill at the Hotel Del Coronado in
Coronado, California---Jo Merrill
