I made chicken, vegetable n barley soup yesterday...it was soooo good. James took most of the leftovers to work and Sarah and I polished off the rest for lunch. Now it's 3pm and I'm pondering dinner tonight. Hmm.
It is so dang cold! I think I've about given up on wearing clothes today. It's 3pm and I and am about to ditch the clothes for my jammies and warm robe. Not something I usually do, but it's so dang cold! And did I mention grey and dreary and COLD?
Brrr.
So...dinner. Hmm. I'm not wanting to venture out to buy anything. Payday is tomorrow although yes there is funds available if I NEEDED something. But really...I just don't want to go into the wind. :P That and I like to stretch what we've got a nice long way...helps me get creative with what I do have on hand.
(this break brought to you by the letter P and the letter J)
Aaah.....
Ok, feet are feeling less than frozen now....huzzah for fuzzy slippers!!
The soup theme is still in my brain. I had happy tummies from that easy potato soup I made last week....one lady insisting I get my recipe to her. Sadly, I started w/ a basic recipe and then winged it as I always do....so I think I could get close to duplicating it, but my soups are rarely the same twice. I think I could get her darn close to it but we'll see.
Sarah is napping...mom is too...so the house is quiet except for a chicken that must have just layed an egg because she's making a happy squawkie 'I just laid an egg!' kind of noises! :)
Time to put on the kettle for tea and ponder a few food blogs to get my ideas going.....
