Oh gods I need sleep
Wow. What a day. Hockey gold for Canada, and the end of the Olympics. That bottle of Baileys I was saving? Gone - as Minni knows well. (Good gods, I'm glad I accidentally closed the window halfway through talking to her. That log is likely just... embarrassing)
It'd be a lie if I said I wasn't actually kind of relieved it's all over. Now things can get back to normal, haa. It's great when exciting things happen, but stability is good too! (As well as following a regular schedule). So hopefully this week will be a turn-around for me. I've spent so much time watching hockey in the last week that I haven't been doing much else. (Really need to do laundry, argh)
I have so much to do tomorrow, it's crazy. WELL. I'D BEST GET ON THAT. It certainly doesn't help that I've been having issues with sleeping lately because my radiator keeps waking me up at around 6 AM with... issues. Lots of really loud banging noises. Seriously, radiator, what the hell're you doin'? I wish there was a way I could make it... stop... doing that because it's really inconvenient. I end up falling back asleep and staying in bed until noon. NOT GOOD.
Since I don't have anything else to say - because I haven't been doing much - here, I'll share a simple recipe for breadcrumb chicken thighs that I made the other night, a variation on what my mum makes, 'cause it's delicious. Very simple, buuut I know there are people on my flist who are as incapable in the kitchen as I am, sooo yeah.
Mum does it on stovetop, but I prefer to bake it. It's quick to make, which is good for inexperienced persons like myself. (When I think of it, I still can't believe that I didn't know how to cook a single goddamn thing until I moved into my apartment. Yeesh.)
-Preheat oven to 400F.
-Mix up in a bowl or plastic bag: 1/4 cup breadcrumbs, 1 tsp each of paprika and chili powder and oregano and salt, 1/4 tsp ground black pepper
-Take 1 package chicken thighs (6 or 8, must be boneless/skinless). Coat each with the breadcrumb mixture thoroughly.
-Place on a nonstick pan, put in oven to bake 20 minutes. Remove and turn them over, then bake another 20 minutes.
And now, to BED.
