Things I Should Not Cook Without A Recipe

With all the snow, I thought some home made chicken noodle soup sounded really good.

For some reason I have it in my head that I can just throw that together, despite having never turned out a good batch. I am not going to bother with a picture… but lets just say my streak of not very good soup continues.

It is edible in the sense that I have been eating it, but Heather won’t touch it. I am learning how big a factor visual appeal is in cooking. In this case even if it looked ok, the soup has other problems.

Anyway… beyond cooking, Heather and I have really gotten settled in around here. We had the snow day, Where we both had to work some, but were around the house, and then this weekend was our first week with nothing planned that we have had in a long long time.

We still don’t actually have that last box of books unpacked, but we re-organized some left over wedding decorations into a more robust container such that it can go to the garage and free up a little more space. (I have no idea why we have that stuff, don’t ask)

We also solved some of our closet problem with a little board with coat-hooks on it that Target had. Unfortunately it wasn’t 16 inches wide, so I used a heavy duty drywall anchor for the non-stud end… I hope when we move out the wall isn’t too bad. At least we have someplace to hang a coat in the meantime 🙂
