Polyjuice Potion!
May. 8th, 2013 09:20 amOne of the many advantages of living a single life is the fact that, while I like to cook for myself, I don't have to worry about presentation and the like. If it tastes nice, that's ok. And if sometimes it doesn't look so nice, I don't mind and nobody gets to nag me.
I made a very nice risotto on Sunday, and some very tasty vegetable cream soup on Monday. There were leftovers from both, and so yesterday I thought, oh what the hell, let's just mix them together and heat them up. When I poured the resulting, slightly sludgy mix into a soup bowl, it struck me that I'd probably managed the closest possible approximation to Polyjuice Potion, at least as far as colour and consistency were concerned.
It did taste nice, though. And it was the perfect telly food, because consuming it required only a tablespoon.
In mindlessly-gobbling-down-tv-series news, I've ordered season 1-4 of "Breaking Bad". If five people with completely different tastes (which, in three cases, I partly share) tell me it's great, that's good enough for me. Plus, I need something to tide me over till season 2 of "Case Histories" comes out, and if that isn't a valid reason, I don't know what is. Another advantage of single life: I don't have to justify spending money on whatever I want. Oh, and I bought new Sennheiser in-ear headphones. *drools* The ones I have are fine, but I'm planning on bequeathing them to Irene (thoroughly cleaned and disinfected of course).
( Dysfunctional family story, yayy! )
