Snow!

I don'thave to tell you about snow; right now the majority of the country has snow. For the first time in years, all 50 of the states had snow in one day, even Hawaii (not that I know that from experience; I only heard it on the news). Snow brings its own challenges. It takes longer to get the car going, longer to get to work, and longer to keep wiping up the icy wet mess on your floor. If you have young children to let in and out, multiple your time exponentially.

Today's advice is to put on a pot of soup, and keep on mopping!


Angel's Chicken Soup
Several pieces of chicken, no sert amount
a handful of carrots, more or less
an onion or two
celery if you'd like
chicken buillion
parsley
several cloves of garlic
olive oil
Noodles or spaghetti

Chop the onion, garlic, and celery. Brown in the olive oil along with the chicken. Use a large pot. Once the chicken is browned and the vegetables cooked soft, Add in a potful of water. As you can tell, this is an "inexact science". Grate the carrot and toss in. Boil until the chicken falls off the bone.

Use a slotted spoon and pull out the chicken bones. Add a teaspoon of bullion for each 2 cups of water (estimate if you need to). Cook for a good long time. Toss in oregano and parsley. If you are using spaghetti, break it into small pieces. Toss in the spaghetti or noodles and cook till tender.

Serve liberally; sniff often!

Enjoy your snow.
