 Just as we were enjoying the long summer days, cooler nights have begun to remind us that fall and winter are just around the corner. As we make the most of our final summer days and prepare for back to school, it is also an ideal time to think ahead at our own travel plans for the year. Having an exciting trip to look forward to makes the mundane chores of everyday life easier to complete and us happier women to be around. We have lots on the "horizon" for this fall, winter and next spring. In this newsletter you'll not only see some of our upcoming trips but one that we're happy to have just announced - our Lassies on the Emerald Isle tour to Ireland.
We have an exciting schedule for 2011 & 2012. When the weather turns cool, why not pack your bags and join us? Better yet, have your mother, daughters and girlfriends come too! All our programs are designed for women only, with a safe and fun environment for everyone. What are you waiting for...

A Taste For Travel
|
Dublin Bay Prawn Bisque
Recipe created by Irish Chef Cathal Armstrong
This creamy and spicy update on the classic Irish soup will impress any foodie and is hearty enough to be a meal in itself.
Servings: Serves 6-8
Ingredients
- 1/2 yellow onion , chopped
- 1 medium leek , chopped
- 1/2 bulb fennel , chopped
- 4 Tbsp. unsalted butter
- 2 plum tomatoes , chopped
- 2 Tbsp. tomato paste
- 1/2 cup Oloroso sherry
- 1 pound medium head-on prawns or shrimp (about 25 to 30), plus a few extra for garnish (optional)
- 1/4 cup uncooked basmati rice
- 4 cups heavy cream
- 2 cups half-and-half
- 6 sprigs of parsley , plus more for garnish (optional)
- 6 sprigs of thyme , plus more for garnish (optional)
- 1 bay leaf
- 4 tsp. fresh lemon juice
- Pinch of cayenne pepper
- Salt
Directions
In a wide (4-quart) saucepan, cook onion, leek, and fennel in butter over medium heat until translucent, about 8 minutes. Add tomatoes and tomato paste; continue to cook until most of the water from tomatoes has evaporated, about 4 minutes. Add sherry and simmer until reduced by half, 5 to 6 minutes. Stir in prawns, rice, cream, and half-and-half; bring to a simmer. Add parsley, thyme, and bay leaf, then gently simmer, stirring occasionally, for 45 minutes.
Discard herbs and prawns. Puree soup in a blender, then strain through a fine-mesh sieve. Stir in lemon juice and cayenne pepper; season to taste with salt.
Quickly boil extra prawns (if using) until no longer translucent, 1 to 2 minutes. Ladle hot soup into bowls. Place 1 boiled prawn in each bowl with a few extra herb sprigs (if using).
