Udon noodle soup with stir fried chicken in it. I marinated it with 1T each hoisin, soy sauce, brown sugar and fresh ginger. Served on side cucumbers with sweet chili sauce. Kind of a mash-up but it was tasty. Broth had chicken stock, soy, shredded carrots, scallions and sautéed onions.

Oh boy that’s more than I know! It looked kinda like this but none of the fenders matched and the roof and hood lost paint in big splotches. Using archaeological techniques, I determined it was dark green in ancient times.

That is a Norway Spruce, Patricia. We have a whole pine forest across the street here. Protected water company land. You can see it in the background.

Some little inspirations and wip in my corner studio. And my absolute beast of an easel, which I bought used so it could bring with it all the spirit and experience of other painters before me.

Making this for dinner tonight with Rosemary White Beans. The can is good until 2028! Because confit! The fat keeps out bacteria. French housewives, raising ducks, sold the breasts at a higher price at market and preserved the legs fully cooked and submerged in fat to eat in the fall and winter.

You can just see our rocking chairs on the front patio there. Last week we met the new mailman, who drove in while we were sitting in the sun. And the whole tree is ablaze now. I can hear the neighbor’s chimes.
