I'd planned on making "That Chicken That You (I) Like" tonight, a recipe sent to me in a care package from Roo. (this is not "Bill's Favorite Chicken," which is a recipe from my mom). But I realized when I was getting the ingredients out, that I'd forgotten to pick up dry white wine whilst on yesterday's trip to the supermarket that my brother had chauffeured. As I'm stuck in stone age philadelphia, I can't just run out to the corner store to get the missing ingredient, I have to file a triplicate request to enter the inconveniently located government liquor monopoly compound. There might be something closer, but I'm not really in the mood to go off looking for it. It's probably for the best, as I was getting stressed about the time required to cook a new recipe. As it is, I didn't even fully defrost the premade meal which Alison had cooked for me before she left. We're supposed to study an hour for every hour of class time, and with 8 hours in the classroom each day, there isn't really much time for frivolous chefitude.
Instead, I'll wait for Friday, where the weekend stretching out before me will delude me into thinking I've got plenty of time to undertake such endeavors.
