Damn it! You know what? I'm sick of this crap. I'm sick of being the guy who eats insects and gets the funny syphilis. As of this moment, it's over. I'm finished being everybody's butt monkey!

Blah. I had plans to make dinner tonight. I was just about to start, and realized that I don't have enough cumin or oregano. Now I'm trying to figure out what I can make with what I do have in the house. I have a feeling that this will end up being spaghetti with olive oil, garlic, whatever kind of beans I have in the cabinet, and whatever kind of frozen vegetables I have in the freezer. I think the only vegetable I have that would even remotely work with pasta is cauliflower.

I have a pork, apple, sage pie from this place [link] which is unfortunately right in my neighborhood. I already ate the slice of cranberry chess pie that was intended for dessert.

I went apple picking today! I got a lot of apples. I think that I will make apple butter.

Well, I started out with spaghetti and beans, and added some canned tomato, and some onion and garlic and spices, and I think I ended up with a half-assed version of Cincinnati chili.

I made a wild rice salad with cranberries and pecans. It was my first time trying this recipe, and it's definitely a keeper. [link]

I'm making applesauce. The house smells amazing.

I made a chicken in the crock pot and mashed potatoes and gravy.

Hey, is it that Pintrest chicken in a crock pot, Nora? I was going to try that, but I thawed out Mr. Chicken last night and he's tucked up in a roasting pan right now with onions shoved up his butt.

If it is, let me know how it goes. (I like the idea of it, but I DO like the crispy NOMMY skin you get with roasting. DH and I often wish, along with out friend S, that stores just sold chicken skin, as that really is the most delicious part of the chicken. Yes, I know it's unhealthy. But soaked in lemon juice, slathered with butter and sprinkled with pepper and kosher salt...OMG, so freaking good.)

My applesauce is awesome. SO simple, just apples, water, cinnamon and ground ginger. I'm going to get some pork chops tomorrow and have it for dinner. If I can manage not to eat it all tonight. Also, might make some apple butter.

I need to get some apples. I have a pork loin and pork chops in the freezer (why, yes, my mom sent me home with a freezer bag full of meat the last time I visited) and I also make a mean Apple Brown Betty.

My house smells so delicious right now, like chicken and garlic and butter and onion all mixed together.
