sleepymaggieIts 30 degrees outside and 55 degrees inside and i am super cold. I'm typing this under 5 blankets and two cats. Theres a third cat perched on the dresser, this gives off a small amount of heat too.
I hate winter. Must acquire space heater.
Mondays are soup days. I made thyme-mushroom soup tonight, served with cheese and crackers. Next week i might make broth from scratch.
Tomorrow is a red beans and rice experiment. This weekend i might try to make one of those no-kneed breads, recipe is for olive breads, sounds awesome. Pat will be away so i don't have to feel bad about gluten food.
I'm mostly warm under the covers, just my fingers are really cold. And my head. Maybe i'll go get my hat and wear it to bed.
I'm trying to learn to make cheap good food, food with staples, food that can be stretched and reused. I'm also trying this semi-vegan diet, where you avoid animal foods before dinner, and then eat as you like in the evening. Point is to emphasize veg and fruit and whole grains durinv the day without making yourself insane.
Cooking healthy and cheap and staple-y with the added layers of no meat, no soy, no gluten is a puzzle to be worked at.
I'm typing this on my phone in the tiny mobile lj window. Just typing w/o reading mostly. Ignore caps and punc mishaps, laugh at humerous spelling mistakes.
