Today is frozen and gently
grieving. We have chosen to cook here at
Casa de Jochild. We are trying out the
Jamie Oliver method of cooking chicken in milk with modifications suggested here
and by a couple of friends who have
tried it. We added a dozen pearl onions to the milk, and deleted the cinnamon stick because we didn't have one. It has turned out a beautiful
result.
We used the leftover olive oil/butter
from searing the chicken to fry my breakfast home fries, and those were
extremely good. And while the oven was
on, we split a head of garlic, soaked it in olive oil and roasted it as well,
to be saved in even more olive oil as our basic low-heat cooking oil.This house now smells like a garlic
press.
Nursing visit postponed until
Thursday because of icy roads. I have
more HHS forms to fill out and social service clarification calls to make that
I am dragging my heels about because I am so fucking tired of begging and
justifying my right to a poverty level of existence. Think I’ll just eat chicken and listen to
Pete Seeger for a while.
