I was only a girl, and 'twas natural that at first I should be mistaken in my fancies." The Vicar had caught her by each wrist. "You don't understand, of course. You never understood, for you have no more heart than one of those pink-and-white bisque figures that you resemble. You don't love me, and therefore I will go to the devil' may not be an all-rational deduction, but 'tis very human logic.
Not once during dinner was Alice serious. Over the soup an excellent bisque of écrevisses she bubbled over with the latest Parisian gossip, the new play at the Odéon, the fashion in hats. With the fish she prattled on over the limitations of the new directoire gowns and the scandal involving a certain tenor and a duchess.
It was Wayland who had first described Mrs. Williams in that metaphor: "a piece of Bisque or Dresden," he had said, "and what those lousy Indians need is a wooden wash tub with lots of soft soap." Then, she wanted to see Mrs. Williams, to study her with this new knowledge. A picket fence in imitation of a home in the East ran round the Mission House.
The Emperor, seeing a fine bust of the marshal, in bisque, exquisitely made, paused, and, not noticing the pallor which overspread the countenance of the duchess, asked her what she thought of this bust, and if it was a good likeness. The widow felt as if her old wound was reopened; she could not reply, and retired, bathed in tears, and it was several days before she reappeared at court.
This is the recipe for eight people, and it is well worth trying if you are giving a dinner of importance: Bisque of Crawfish
Sheiner, it was plain to see, was in clover, for he was breakfasting regally, on squares of toast covered with shrimp and picked crab meat creamed, with a bisque of cray-fish and papa-bottes in ribbons of bacon, to say nothing of fruit and bruilleau. Blake insisted on joining his old friend Sheiner, much to the tatter's secret discomfiture.
This kind of Dish is call'd a Bisque of Fish. To boil Fresh Salmon. Lay your Fish thus prepared, into the Pan, where you boil it, and pour in Water, with a sixth part of Vinegar, a little Salt, and a stick of Horse-Radish; this should be boiled pretty quick: thus far for boiling fresh Salmon.
And the biggest and prettiest of them, a lovely blonde creature with a shapely-jointed body and a bisque head, covered with golden curls, looked hopelessly bedraggled. “Oh, Betsy Hale!” Dicky said. “You naughty, naughty girl! How could you drown your own children like that?” “I were divin’ them a baff,” Betsy explained.
"I assure you I shall appreciate anything from hardtack to bisque ice-cream." "I haven't any of those," said the girl, "but there are plenty of beans left; and, if you will get some wood for a fire, I'll make some coffee." "Agreed," said the man. "That sounds better than anything I've heard for forty-eight hours."
By that we do not mean the thin, watery stuff that is served in most of the restaurants and called clam chowder just because it happens to be made every Friday. That is fairly good as a clam soup but it is no more chowder than a Mexican soup approaches a crawfish bisque.
