Good soup
I made really good potato-leek soup last night. I’m going to write down my recipe so I can make it again!
3 potatoes, unpeeled, cut in hunks, sauteed for a couple minutes in butter and then simmered till soft in turkey broth.
2 leeks and one stalk of celery, sliced very thin, sauteed in butter till very soft.
Mash up the potatoes, mix in the leeks. Salt, pepper, add a little water if it’s too thick.
YUM.
Chloe and I did our Jane Austen jigsaw that Grandma gave us, and we watched the Amada Root “Persuasion” and listened to loveline. And then Bob came over and we all watched four episodes of the 2nd season of Breaking Bad. And I worked on Christmas knitting until my hands got too sore to continue.
I loved doing the puzzle. It was just the right difficulty to be fun and a bit challenging but not frustrating. The illustration is very detailed so, if you think about it hard enough, you can figure out exactly where each piece might go. I loves jigsaw puzzles when I was little, and doing this one made me feel really happy :)
