323/365: I eyeballed this beef stew, just throwing in what needed to go (half an onion, a shallot, that pound of stewing beef from the freezer, potatoes, carrots, and those little tomatoes I had not eaten.) Added vegetable broth, white wine and seasonings liberally.

321/365: I made Nisha's Tomato-Fennel Braised Chickpeas today. Just the right comfort food for this cold rainy weather. I am happily lapping up a bowlful right now.

319/365: the saucers at Dolce Sicilia say "Siete nel luogo in cui la vostra giornata inizia bene e finisce meglio." According to my translator, this means "You are in the place where your day starts off well and ends better."

314/365: I am currently reading Margaret Atwood's "memoir of sorts", "Book of Lives". This prompted me to re-read the opening of "The Handmaid's Tale", as I do every so often.

313/365: made lasagna. Didn't really read the whole recipe though, and forgot to add salt and pepper. Oh well, it still turned out alright.
