For What Ails You

This weekend I was catching up on the new design of Last Night's Dinner and saw this gorgeous picture of chicken soup and I knew that it was just what I needed. I've been recovering from some unnamed malaise and even though it had to be 90 degrees I fired up three burners: one to boil some chicken thighs, one to thaw a chicken brothsicle and one to saute onions, garlic and some seriously aged carrots and potatoes. Some thyme off a plant I recently killed and alphabet pasta rounded out the dish and I had a steaming bowl of comfort to tuck into while I watched some episodes of The Closer. A super way to spend a sicky Saturday.
