I won't rant about the election. I've been doing nothing but that for a week. Ugh.
Instead I have had a really serene evening by myself at home, cooking on my own range. Trying to do all my cooking this week. No eating dinner out. No fast food.
Tonight, roasted a small chicken, and made my mom's zucchini. It came out heavenly.
I am not trying to become a food blog, btw. My photos aren't all that good. But I'm calm. Caaaallllmmmm.
And now I can make chicken noodle soup with the carcass (which um, is most of the chicken, minus a leg and thigh, and a bit of breast). Or just...eat more chicken.
Later this week, French onion soup, and maybe chicken noodle soup, and mushroom tortellini with Alfredo sauce. I didn't make the tortellini, but at least it's fresh.
Off to wash up. Not too bad with the dishes.
