Trying to make chicken soup tonight vaguely Italian. A matter of using igredients and spices that I'm used to seeing in Italian recipes rather than following a particular recipe. In crockpot: Chicken breasts on the bone with a tiny bit of sweet Italian sausage for extra flavor. Veggies: celery, onions, muchroomms, tomatoes. Liquids water, wine, lemon juice, olive oil. Spices garlic, marjoram, thyme, sweet basil, black pepper and a hint of brown sugar to avoid bitterness. Will add pasta at end.
Yeah... That went well.

Nice! Sometimes I think I'll never have a grownup looking house. Between the books and the hodgepodge of furnishings and the fact that I'm not really buying furniture for the bit, so I'm stuck with things like the stupid filing cabinet... ah well, it's me. A bit of a hodgepodge.

Our books are in the basement on shelves right now, but I'm hoping to bring at least a bunch of the hardcovers up when I get my new bookcase for the dining room. I hate not having books up here.

Ooh, Aims! How welcoming it looks!
Spaghetti squash sporked and in the oven. Sauce in the crockpot containing: tomatoes (canned), onions, garlic, red and purple peppers, (all from our garden), zucchini, squash, basil, (all from the farmer`s market, although the basil counts as half ours since I planted out the rooted cuttings from the farmer), and dried oregano and thyme. Guess I need to grow oregano & thyme! We had enough tomatoes for the sauce, too, but I`m using those and the farmers` market tomatillos for salsa verde.

I'm anxiously waiting for the 9PM season premiere of Hoarders. In the meantime I've discarded a bunch of junk mail and got a bunch of other house chores/decluttering done. The show gives me lots of inspiration, as it were.

Sports bra wearing people, any recs for non-underwire sports bras that might work for those of us with large boobs?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
So nice, Aimee!
Jesse, if you have a groupon for Donors Choose, you should know Sars isn't doing an October Challenge this year (she's holding off until March 2011) and the groupon expires on October 1.
Yeah, I used it. Not on what I meant to, but eh.
