Last Night's Storm

Last night's storm tore apart the jib sail. Stranded, we picked mussels from the pilings of an old battered pier and made our way up the muddy trail to a lone cabin on the bluff.

Lo! With a well stocked kitchen! Caramelized onion, garlic, fennel, and peppers.  Added two cups dry white wine, two cups water, cracked black pepper and a sprinkle of thyme.  Magic. 

  Drank the rest of the wine and snuggled up by the fire until we were rescued in the morning by a pair of Golden Welford Labs.
