I made soup today.
1lb or 2.5 C cooked lentils
3/4 C cooked brown rice
3/4 C thinly sliced carrot
1 leek, thinly sliced (about a cup)
1/2 a medium sized onion, diced
garlic (I’d suppose as much as you like, I would have used 3 or 4 cloves, but saved it for another meal and used 1 TBS of garlic powder instead)
12 oz mushrooms sliced (any mushrooms will do; I had crimini)
4 C veggie broth
3 C water (or all your liquid could be broth)
1/2 TBS sea salt
1 tsp cracked pepper
olive oil
saute onion, leek & garlic in olive oil. when those are almost translucent, toss in carrots, mushrooms, salt & pepper and cover & continue to cook all that down.
add the rest and bring to a boil. serve with some yummy bread, toast or crackers – i’m making me a sandwich on the side.
enjoy.

Elijah had a revelation about education:
Elijah: hey, what’s that song, ‘we don’t need no education’?
Me: I’ll look it up for you.
E: but, we do need education!
E: (after watching the video) okay, maybe not that kind of education!
thank you, Pink Floyd.

I was unawares about a cult phenomenon around ‘alot’ until my Dear Other Half showed me the light and I read this blog post. I knew that it is quite common for people to misspell ‘a lot’, but I had no idea that the misspelling has been personified in a sense… The Internet is a beautiful place.

thank you to those who made my birthday week great; especially when it wasn’t so great & i needed to cry.

hoping this week holds all kind of greatness.
