Looks Like a Soupy Week Ahead

Some things to try this week:
Lemon-Glazed Persimmon Bars (assuming those persimmons aren't too far gone)
Shiitake and Bok Choy Soup
Sweet Potato and Sausage Gratin with Thyme (use turkey burger)
Potee Lorraine (this is ALWAYS good; needs pork shoulder though)
La Soupe de Louviers (if i make, i will sub in sweet potatoes for the carrot, celery and potatoes)
Portuguese Stone Soup (this is similar)
Sweet Potato Turnip Gratin (dunno about that cream)
Vietnamese Sticky Chicken with Daikon Pickle (can maybe use cabbage leaves?)
