Organic Chicken Vegetable Mole Soup

Image
Roasted a chicken in mole sauce then made stock from the bones.  Sauteed well chopped cauliflower, kale, scallions, onions, tomatoes and anything else in the house with olive oil. Sauteed to meld, with about a tablespoon of mole rojo sauce and a cube of garlic, to make a sofrito, of sorts. Then, added stock and some bite-sized pieces of chicken. Reduced for no longer than 45 minutes. Add water if need be. Que Rico

Interesting use of tulle, a traditionally feminine fabric, as a sculptural element. @MadSqParkNYC @FlatironNY #publicart

The Midnight Library – Matt Haig

Image
Oh, the different lives we could have. Nora Seed's life in Bedford, England is as mid as it can get. But it didn't have to be. In despair, she gets to visit each of her life possibilities at The Midnight Library under the guidance of Mrs. Elm. The author lends a light touch to heavy philosophical matters, such as quantum physics, and to Nora's possible lives. A fable thoroughly worth reading though simplified. Matt Haig seems to be Britain’s answer to Paulo Coelho.  Reminiscent of The Devil and Miss Prym, a favorite of Paulo Coelho's fables. The two books together would make a great compare and contrast.

Something in the Water from Downton Abbey Actress Catherine Steadman

Image
A bonkers thriller that is convoluted and anxiety-inducing. The disruptive global economy as horror story through the actions of a young, ‘tryna be posh British couple that make deluded, amateur decisions, together and separately, at every turn. Interesting how the author integrated a genuine criminal kingpin into the plot. The criminal justice system, hypocrisy, grants for the arts, global finance, weird weather, unethical tourism, aviation and diving. The couple:   dumb as a box of rocks.  I read it frantically.😂 If actresses need to create their own parts now, this actress gets an A .

Cool Beans

Image
My only New Year’s resolution was to eat more beans and better-quality rice. Have you tried these Brami Lupini beans?   They add a lot of al dente texture to meals like salads. @wholefoods  

Mask #3: The ResMed Nasal Mask AirFit N20

Image
CPAP patients at the get-go should know that there are tons of variations on masks, even air pod-ish ones, not just the all-encompassing face mask, that anyone envisions when you see a CPAP mask in your mind’s eye. The mask makes all the difference.  This is Mask Number 3, which is why there is a 90-day trial, even if the initial compliance is completed. It’s a process that takes fortitude, a quality that is underrated in a sped-up, impatient world. #cpap #cpapworld #positiveairflow #apap #process
