Leeks for one. I also suspect exotic-to-me tubers. But I don't get around when it comes to non-tropical veggies.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

OK. 18 cups of broth now in the freezer, and another 5 or so in the fridge because I ran out of containers. I'll probably make some sort of soup for dinner tomorrow and use the fridge broth there.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
And I thought I was being all home-cook-ery by crockpotting some chicken breasts I found on sale for 88 cents a pound. Figure I'll dice 'em up and feed 'em to the cats to supplement their canned food.

All this talk of cooking!
Mom and I are having a cooking day tomorrow. We've talked about this forever, taking turns (starting with her house) and cooking different things for the week and splitting and freezing (possibly) some things.
So we're making a pasta dish, she's trying to recreate a dish from a restaurant we like. And then I'm going to make this roast pork shoulder and spanish rice I saw on foodtv.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
My cooking spurt was last week but I have some steaks I could defrost and I could make horseradish sour cream.

I am going to try to do a turkey leg braise in the slow cooker and also make turkey meatballs for pasta during the week. We'll see how things go tomorrow...

I put four eggs in a pan of water and one of them floated so I threw it out. I hardboiled them and now another one is floating. Should I toss it too?

Now tagless for your comfort.
I thought it was only if they floated raw.

(Also, considering some of the processed crap that I eat, I really can't be too concerned about a bit of chemical leaching from plastic containers. Once I stop eating some of that junk food, I'll feel a bit more justified in trying to avoid plastic.)
I thought that we only had to worry about that if you heated the plastic, it was okay if it was in the fridge.

Well, I usually microwave the frozen broth before I use it. Plus, I'm paranoid.
