I made a chicken in the crock pot and mashed potatoes and gravy.
Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Hey, is it that Pintrest chicken in a crock pot, Nora? I was going to try that, but I thawed out Mr. Chicken last night and he's tucked up in a roasting pan right now with onions shoved up his butt.
If it is, let me know how it goes. (I like the idea of it, but I DO like the crispy NOMMY skin you get with roasting. DH and I often wish, along with out friend S, that stores just sold chicken skin, as that really is the most delicious part of the chicken. Yes, I know it's unhealthy. But soaked in lemon juice, slathered with butter and sprinkled with pepper and kosher salt...OMG, so freaking good.)

My applesauce is awesome. SO simple, just apples, water, cinnamon and ground ginger. I'm going to get some pork chops tomorrow and have it for dinner. If I can manage not to eat it all tonight. Also, might make some apple butter.

I need to get some apples. I have a pork loin and pork chops in the freezer (why, yes, my mom sent me home with a freezer bag full of meat the last time I visited) and I also make a mean Apple Brown Betty.
My house smells so delicious right now, like chicken and garlic and butter and onion all mixed together.

I've been craving a Reuben for the last three days so I finally just went out and got one. Fortunately the revamped Haight Street Market has a great sandwich counter with their own pastrami. (They clearly used Bi-Rite as a model, and it's working.)
I got JZ a piece of kolokithopita. (Greek zucchini pie.)

I did this one, because I had all the ingredients: [link]

I need to get some apples.
When I was out at Stockton last weekend for Emmett's tournament one of the parents brought a loaf of rosemary bread and turkey and sandwich makings and was just handing them out to us. I had completely forgotten how well thin slices of apple go on a turkey sandwich.

Hey Nora, are you all better?

Yep, that's the one I pinned, Nora! How is it? (The smell of my chicken roasting is torture. I'm not sure I could deal with the smell wafting in my nose as I sleep...I'd wake up with the pillow hanging out my mouth or something.)

I'm improving some, but still feeling crappy. Visiting San Francisco was totally worth it.
