Tonight I made a wonderful Chicken and Wild Rice soup from scratch, put the chicken carcass on the back burner to brew up some more chicken stock for the freezer, and cooked some Italian sausage to store in the freezer for future pizza or addition to some venison meal. All while the kids managed to give me the necessary 45 minutes to get most of this done without too many interruptions - I felt like I was on a roll! Yesterday it was Italian bread in the bread machine (okay, not exactly "handmade" but close) and Pumpkin Chocolate Chip cupcakes with cream cheese frosting. I love to make things from scratch when I have the time, which is most of the time but not always. I think these last two days though just about uses up my domestic quota for the week!
Hey, if we lived next door, you could cook and I would organize.
ReplyDeleteI'd be totally down with that! But wait, the organizing eventually comes to an end (doesn't it?) but the cooking continues....mmmm...maybe not such a good deal after all!
