It's raining and the world is going crazy. Chicken soup!

Also, this arrived today. Mixmaster model 12, ca. early 1960's. Very nice shape! I'm not going anywhere tonight and I think I will make a dessert.

Steve - your soup looks fabulous. We were lazy and had one of the bagged chopped salads from Costco - the Mediterranean one. That and a frozen pizza which had pesto and sliced tomatoes on a thin artisan crust. Also Costco. Both were excellent. Tomorrow is soup day. I made broth last week and froze it. Not sure what kind of soup I'll be making. That mixer looks to be in mint condition. Just like Mom's, the one I used when I started baking stuff so many years ago....nice memories...

Probably the same split pea soup I made 3 days ago.

Leftover shepherd's pie. Yum. Got this - like so many things we are eating lately, from Market Wagon, who acts as a distributor for local food producers.

Quinoa Tacos (recipe from Thug Kitchen). They are delicious and have become our go-to “junk food” tacos.

Steve, the Mixmaster looks perfect except it's supposed to be turquoise.  Mr. Nina (who has been going back and forth to YVR) is now here for the unknown future. Canada has said that non-residents can enter, but must voluntarily self-isolate for 2 weeks. OK, maybe it's just Vancouver only, but either way he sees no point in going back to just hang out for 2 weeks and work remotely. He can do that from here, where we have better TV. BUT I haven't had to really cook meals for 2 for a long time now, and I'm scratching my head to remember what I used to cook routinely, and buy at the stores. Chicken soup is a brilliant idea, as is veggie lasagne, arroz con pollo, and some soups. I am hampered a bit because Mr. Nina would prefer to eat vegetarian (as would I), but there's no way I'm going to go shopping for fresh produce 2-3x a week. So he'll just have to deal with it, or "eat around" what he doesn't like. I may try to hit Costco on Monday or Tuesday morning next week and see what kind of stuff they have. I haven't shopped there for years, since it's just been the two of us. But it may be worth it to stockpile some food (like canned tuna) that won't go bad. Of course, it can't hurt to pick up some tp if they have it.  | |||

It’s Pi Day, so I made a chicken pie! It starts with the white meat from a roasted chicken; I usually use a Costco chicken but there’s no way I’d go to Costco right now. So we walked down to Whole Foods (in the snow!) this morning, and I had everything else at home.  It’s an enormous pie, 10x13” Not a glamour shot, sorry!

Today is our wedding anniversary, but we didn’t wNt to go to a restaurant, so I cooked! (Most of you probably remember that o pretty much ever cook) My mom taught me how to make lasagna when she was here for the holidays, so that’s what I made today. Sauce and filling from scratch! It was fantastic! And lots left over!
